You might wonder how I could find a single issue to focus on as the leading negative GOP contribution to the health care debate, but I long ago decided it was Michelle Bachman's hysteria about death panels and today I found a reasoned article on why not having a discussion of cost/benefit in our society ratchets up the cost of health care for us all.
It could be end of life care, it could be care to brain dead people. It could be putting people on a ventilator to keep them alive for a few weeks instead of letting them just pass on today. But these discussions are forbidden by the ACA in an effort to get a few GOP senators to vote for the bill.
