Giuliani: Without tort reform, health care can only save money by ‘pulling the plug on grandma.’
Last month, former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani endorsed former Alaska governor Sarah Palin’s ridiculous claims about “death panels” in health care reform, saying that “whether they will do that or not I don’t know. … People assume these death panels will be created.”
On NBC’s Meet The Press yesterday, Giuliani continued to give credence to the idea, saying that because Democratic health care reform proposals don’t include medical malpractice reform or “interstate purchase of insurance,” it became “impossible for most Republicans to figure out how you’re going to save the money other than pulling the plug on grandma.

With Rudia wearing little numbers like that around NY in the Winter s/he had best worry about pulling the plug on the Grandma's when s/he catche pneumonia from the chill of wearing skimpy outfits.

Look when the top executives in insurance companies, health insurance companies here, make millions of dollars per year, then get millions more in bonuses (and more than a handful that saved money by refusing to pay for treatments to save money) and then when you cut out all these folks makes millions upon millions to refuse treatments and procedures, then you save the big bucks.
