[quote=Hobie]Now you have a bunch of folks needing expensive end of life care and no way to pay for it, what is government to do. Answer: Physical assisted suicide. [/quote]
If they really want to sell it, the government could offer an offset. Instead of spending $200k on Medicare, people that go for euthanasia, would get $50k in cash. Then people can go enjoy the $50k, and not spend a year in/out of hospital/hospice care.
I wonder what’s the % of people that just die before LTC really kicks in. The insurance companies have to factor that in too.
Sometimes I joke that if I can’t eat solid food or have to become a vegan, that seems like a good time to go.
