Ever wonder if Pharma co's kill assisted-suicide bills?
Suppsedly a huge portion of a person's medical expenses come in the last two years of life.

Just curious.

1. Yes.
I have no doubts that Death with Dignity and similar are bad for the cash flow of the health care industry.

It's much more profitable to extract every last dime from a person before they die, then it is politically popular to call for 100% taxation of an estate.

3. DJIA chart on that site tells a truth,
except it doesn't have the recent dip to 7200 (approximate). The Corporations are getting richer, as the current headlines are filled with them lying and pillaging others' money. Durant claims that one of the historical reasons for failure of a civilization is an obscene concentration of capital leading to financial exhaustion.
