The real death panels will have to come if the Romney/Ryan ideas for Medicaid become law... The states will then have to pick up the costs of old people in nursing homes who, like the guy in LadyJean's post, burned thru all their resources...

The states in the Romney/Ryan world aren't going to be able to handle it and old people, who worked all their lives and played by the rules, will be denied care...

That is reality...

Don't think so??? Read up on what Romney and Ryan have in mind for Medicaid...
