Jake,
>Your suggestion that we will not live to old age in the US is directly refuted by the average life expectancy. My point that the NHS is killing the elderly as a matter of policy because they are too expensive, remains.
Can you explain me, why you regard 'not treating terminally ill people' equal to 'killing people'? Sounds to me a typical strategy of misleading public opinion.
Healthcare in the US in general is far worse than that. Even if you are young, treatable, but don't have the money or just unlucky because your health insurance just does not cover the treatment you need, you might end up pushing up the daisies. Even if you scramble the $ you need to get treatment, you might end up facing personal bankrupcy for the rest of your life. That in itself would not increase life expectancy nor quality of life either.
Walter,
