An end-of-life protocol pushed by the UK’s National Institute For Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) may have resulted in patients being sedated and dehydrated to death before their time, a major story reports today in the Daily Telegraph . This is akin to Sarah Palin’s death panel fear—and if it is true, it is a huge lesson for us as we discuss health care reform.  More details over at Secondhand Smoke .

Dear Reader,

While I have you, can I ask you something? I’ll be quick.

Twenty-five thousand people subscribe to First Things. Why can’t that be fifty thousand? Three million people read First Things online like you are right now. Why can’t that be four million?

Let’s stop saying “can’t.” Because it can. And your year-end gift of just $50, $100, or even $250 or more will make it possible.

How much would you give to introduce just one new person to First Things? What about ten people, or even a hundred? That’s the power of your charitable support.
