This is the same that we fought in Virginia in the late 1970's and in the early 1980's.

This all sounds so 'compassionate' (Not)----this was the beginning of the so called Death With Dignity stuff.

And, yes every Democrat in the state was supporting the bills that put this in place along with all of the liberal lobbying organizations----Planned Parenthood and AAUW being two of the ones of that era.

There was some delay as the Death bill got referred to a study committees.

Eventually it did get voted on and that's when the 'end of life' directives came to be in Virginia. Now, every patient who enters a hospital is ask if they have a living will.

What does this have to do with controlling costs? Wasn't that the primary purpose of the Obamacare bill?

I submit that the reasons for the escalation in cost in the medical arena has a lot to do with the government mandates that have infected the Social Secuirty System via Medicare and Medicaid.

Give those recipients back their hard earned Social Security dollars and eliminate the Government Run System that costs us all more and reduces the quality and quantity of medical help.
