Allow
us to referee. While claims about euthanasia and "death
panels" are over the
top, senior fears have exposed a fundamental truth about what Mr. Obama
is
proposing: Namely, once health care is nationalized, or mostly
nationalized,
rationing care is inevitable, and those who have lived the longest will
find
their care the most restricted.

"nationalized" is not what is going to happen, regulation is not
nationalization. yes there will be a government option but you are still
paying
extra to get the option instead of just preset tax you have to pay and
will
still get it if you want it or not.

breaks down the idea of "rationing" showing that now healthcare is
rationed but
it is done so based on if you have money or not, it also explains the
quality of
life unit or what ever they call it that basically breaks down roughly how
much
quality of life some one gains from a procedure (which are used already by
insurance companies). yes as an individual and family member you want
everything that can be done, but when it starts to cost millions of
dollars for
a few more months that is being greedy and wasteful when that same money
can
help others gain much better life or if it is your out of pocket money
could
take care of your family for years and years
