What is in the plan is payment for a planning session with a doctor to allow you express your wishes at the end of life. Mine are all in order on file with my local hospital. My family is well aware of my wishes. We should all do this.
No "Death Panel" forced me into anything!

Obamacare has hardly taken effect yet. The bulk of the provisions that are going to anger the hell out of people don't take effect until after 2014, (or after, you hope, "The One" is elected again). I'm not talking about you deciding your end of life treatment issues. An unelected government official is going to decide whether you should receive treatment for your ailment or not in our great Obama socialized society where only those who matter will be protected.
