Rewatch the clip. Krugman is admitting is going to be done to save money. Again, who makes these decisions - you and the doctor?
or?
an unelected board of hacks whom you have no redress to?
I not only watched the clip but I listened to it too and then I transcribed the words he spoke on this thread
Krugman didn't speculate that these panels were going to make decisions o
nly to save money but to not waste money on treatments that don't work.
I didn't hear him give any specifics such as we're not going to pay for Grandma's hip replacement because she's too old or we're not going to pay for your electric shock therapy because we have to given an illegal alien an abortion
I heard him speculate that we're not going to waste money on expensive treatement that has no medical value
your insurance company does the same thing and I never hear you calling them a death panel
your insurance company also decides not to pay for legitimate medical care and you have zero recourse (actually you might have some recourse because you have access to an attorney for free - provided you're healthy enough to work)
