    • I disagree with taking away a persons freedom to use or buy strong painkillers during hospice. If you see this post, please consider letting us know what state that is. if a strong painkiller is used during hospice and the person who is dying declines to take other medication as the person in hospice knows and has accepted, he is not going to get better, wouldn’t taking only morphine to stop his pain achieve the result of euthanasia naturally but without the objections of having government involved by making assisted suicide, legal? Wouldn’t the choice to take only painkillers in hospice allow person to die with dignity naturally? Maybe not. I’m asking if anyone has experience to share.

    • I’d like to give credit or credit is due. So, I’m curious how the ACA helps? Did it limit deductibles to $5800?

    • The more the government “plans,” the harder it is for me to plan. (Hat tip to Friedrich Hayek.)

    • Thanks for the post! I always wonder how we got here i.e. how we got to where we are now from the way things were in the past. I appreciate the economics and history lesson regarding Graham’s contributions to the 529. Each of our children graduated college free from debt in any form, neither educational nor personal or anything else. (I can hear HD readers cheers :-) ) 529 plans were a part of that success. Indiana’s 529 includes a tax credit of 20% up to $1000 total and at least one FDIC insured option. Also certain tuition (like for nursing, robotics, etc.) in Indiana’s community colleges in generally free for students who do not have a degree. The credit earned is required to be accepted by the State’s 4-year universities of students decide to pursue a 4-year degree. These aspects seem to me like what would make Graham proud. (Also, everyone at HD can be happy that you don’t have to pay for this if you’re in a different State.) I admit that increasing- in other words inflating-the money supply available for education does allow and enable the cost to go up, but that is the norm in the world we live in today. So I can accept this targeted effort.
