Jeb Bush endorses "death panels" — and he's right to do so - Vox

Jeb Bush endorses "death panels" — and he's right to do so - Vox: "n New Hampshire on Friday, Jeb Bush made a startlingly sensible proposal. "I think if we’re going to mandate anything from government, it might be that if you’re going to take Medicare, you also sign up for an advance directive," the New York Times reports Bush saying.

This goes much further than the provision in Obamacare. All that did was allow Medicare to pay for "voluntary advance care planning." Bush appears to be suggesting something much more radical, and much more sensible: that Medicare mandates an advance directive as a condition of receiving insurance."
