What is happening with the medical profession, don't they care anymore?

I have been reading both here and in other places that several states have set down rules about the treatment of patients with the swine flu. They have all kinds of clauses in these papers about whether someones prognosis is good or if it is bad they will now stop treating you. They say that all of this and legal wrangling is about the swine flu pandemic that they have been trying to panic the public about for the last year. How ever if theyget these laws and rules about who is treatable, and who they can legally let die, I can guarantee that they will stretch these rules and regulations to include other illnesses and the uninsured or underinsured people that President Obama is attempting to secure healthcare benefits for. These new procedures and all are a bad idea, they are bad medicine, they include all kinds of approvals for bad medical practice. Doctors want to be able to dismiss you with prejudice if they deem the quality of your life or your prognosis is not to their liking. May patients have recovered fully from conditions that had a negative prognosis from doctors. I know a few people whom doctors at oe time or another thought that they were so ill that they would not make it through the night, but they are still alive and kicking. Some peoples will to live is stronger than other's and that is not something that you can "factor" into some stupid equation that is designed to save money not to save lives. I don't understand how any doctor worthy of the title could possibly support these plans which in my mind are just thinly veiled threats to the passage of a socialized healthcare bill such as congress is discussing and arguing now. The worst part is that these edicts and policies are not even being put the the people for a vote, because medical institutions and doctors can institute whatever policies or rules that they want. Normally these changes in policy are instituted so that the insurers can get away with refulsing treatment to a specific segment of the population that they don't want to cover. I see no logical or care based reasoning that is valid to support the contention that they need these rules and policies in place to deal with a non-existent pandemic!
