Health Care Questions Answered

Chris Hayes at The Nation is looking to clear up some of the wild rumors flying around the health care debate:

3) I heard the proposals currently under consideration provide seniors with option of free counseling sessions under Medicare, where they can discuss a living will and end-of-life care.

That’s a huge misconception. The bills require all senior citizens (who are non union members) be euthanized on their 70th birthday. Under section 278(c)ii all last rites will be performed by Jeremiah Wright using a Q’uran.

It’s also worth noting that the imposition of sharia is integral to the Obama administration’s efforts to “bend the long-term cost curve.” Reduced consumption of alcohol and bacon are projected to do wonders for public health.
