Why We Must Ration Health Care - NYTimes.com
This is a long article but a good one on the tough topic of what rationing means or could mean. We do ration now - based on what you can afford. It is interesting that so many seem to want to be able to get life extending treatments that they can afford or that their insurance will pay for but at the same time we have millions working on health care directives to avoid being subjected to tube feeding and other life extending measures for their own quality of life. Seems contradictory and makes me wonder where the truth lies.
