That's it. Nothing more, nothing less.
Exactly. Funny how Betsy McCaughey from WSJ made the intial lie about this being mandatory, and then she admitted that she had made it up. However, Limbaugh/Hannity/Beck/FOX and other far right media sources still repeat the lie on daily bases. They are fully aware that is it a lie, but they choose to repeat it anyway. They are on a major mission to mis-inform everyone about the HC bill.

I'm only 28, but I would think it good sense to discuss end of life logistics when you're getting to that age. Not so much about pulling the plug, but living wills, funeral arrangements, policies and whatnot. It's good to have people walk you through different options. I had to deal with that when a close relative died and there's a lot to sort through there.

You make it sound like forced euthenasia, and I see no such thing.

So goes another rediculous post by JennySquirrel.
