One of the most obvious things in the world - capping end of life care, which is wasteful and prohibitively expensive - undone by a catchy slogan, a meme-addicted media, and weak-kneed politicians.

I work pretty exclusively with large and mid-size hospitals and NFPs, and the hospitals are acutely aware of how much money, particularly, of course, Medicare dollars, are wasted during the last year of a patient's life. If you try to cap that you'll be attacked by whomever is running for office, on either side, with few exceptions.
