Since the medical profession chooses who lives and who dies based on ability to pay?

The ones who are allowed to make the decisions based on the ability to pay are disciples of the almighty god, PROFIT, who is really the true god of America. If a business is not PROFITABLE, that is a bad thing and they have to do things like lay offs to become that way or the business cannot exist. A business's success or failure is determined by it's PROFITABILITY. Businesses (hospitals are a business) consider it a loss if their PROFITS are not as high as they wanted and they can't make a PROFIT if they treat people without money or insurance. Sad, so awfully sad, but true nonetheless.
