The new health care plan proposed by Democrats would pay once every 5 years for voluntary sessions for seniors to discuss living wills and end-of-life arrangements (life support, etc) with their doctors.
Conservative politicians are lying to their constituents, and radio/tv/internet pundits are lying to their audience, saying that the health care plan would require end-of-life rationing and euthanasia for seniors.
It just goes to show that when private insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies lobby and bribe with enough money, they can get just about anybody to say just about anything!
