I guess you can't see how giving the government even more power of life and death over its subjects can be anything but political?
Certainly the U.K. NHS experience shows the running of such a system is political. I don't watch it closely, but as I understand it Tony Blair/New Labour doubled spending, but somehow functionaries and bureaucrats got the new money, not the front line people and institutions.
You think we can have anything less than a totally political discussion about euthanasia, most recently known as the Liverpool Care Pathway in the NHS?
