Do you do nothing, do you give them pain meds until they die, do you treat them up to a certain dollar limit, etc. Healthcare costs are one of the major reasons our manufacturing sector is dying. I am a believer in the free enterprise system but medical care is in an unsustainable profit making frenzy. Count me as a single payer supporter.

It's sad to think that the greatest nation this planet has ever seen, puts so many things ahead of looking after the health of its citizens.
Especially since most other developed nations...have already came to that conclusion.
Hopefully, one of these days soon...that will be a stress that you no longer have.
