The 'Death Panel'...does it exist? Almost- the proposal, in embryonic form, is within Daschles book. The bailouts allow cops total access to your health records, once the databases are up and running. Medical privacy actually ended in the 1980's...(all your records pile up in a vault in Connecticut). HMO's pay doctors to withhold treatments, to cut costs...this has been going on for awhile. I know someone whose parents were killed by the HMO's...the slippery slope exists and it would not take much of a push for a real death panel to form, once the weird health-care bill passes.

On page 800-something of the bill, the Feds will be allowed to enter ones home, to make sure your child raising skilsl are up to snuff. Eventually, Feds will be pulling kids out of homes left and right...
