In order to get myself back into the good graces of the White House Office of Disinformation, I'm going to take some time to clear up some of the misperceptions about the "end-of-life counseling" provisions in the various Democratic health-care bills.
"End of life counseling" isn't mandated under the Democrats' legislation. As the bill is currently written, at age 65, you're simply invited to participate in a discussion with a doctor about when the government will stop paying for your health care. The federal government has even generously decided to underwrite the costs of this meeting between you and the doctor about when the government will stop paying for your health care.
I'm glad we got that straightened out.
