Should physician-assisted suicide be legal in Massachusetts?

If only we could get profits out of the system, then things would work right. That's what proponents of government-run health care often suggest. Yet ObamaCare's "co-ops" – including one in Massachusetts – are proving that health care must be run like a business, or it will run into the ground.
The idea behind ObamaCare's co-ops (Consumer Oriented and Operated Plans) was that traditional insurance companies had failed to offer affordable products because they operate as for-profit companies. If co-ops were non-profit, and depended solely on government loans for initial funding, then they would be able to offer affordable consumer products.
