e.g elective surgery

Woman 45 - breast cancer - double mastectomy

For mental health reason doctors Rx breast reconstruction

No one argues - its done all the time

Well - if the woman is 70? - if the woman is 80? if the woman is 90 and in a wheel chair in a home with no visitors?

thank the lord I am not asked to decide what is needed and necessary and what is elective - and then what are the few things that are elective that will get part covered and those not covered at all

and what is experimental and what is now acceptable practice ?
when do we start paying for the new fangled machine or that new procedure

in medicine - when it comes to the health and well being of our kids and other loved ones - DO WE not alway YELL - I want it all and I want the best and damn the cost - but ... but ... if its tax dollars ---- do the people who now complain about the waste of their tax dollars then yell DEATH PANELS the GOV is telling me what I can or can not do? Why do you get what you want but those people do not? Who is Solomon? Who knows all the answers

That is why I take shots - yes I do - at those who do not like other people having opinions that differ from theirs

none of it is simple or we would not be living truely useful and valuable and meaningful and impactful lives

if we all sleep all day until we die - it gets easier I guess
