Medicare is proposing paying doctors for end-of-life counseling, in other words, transferring their older patients to an HMO.
• Hillary Clinton said Tuesday she was deeply offended by Donald Trump's criticism of illegal immigration. However she said she will not return Donald Trump's two hundred thousand dollar donation to the Clinton Foundation. Hillary Clinton said she was deeply offended, she didn't say she was solvent.
