The article is not about death panels run by doctors, they are run by insurance companies. The doctors in this scenario are workers given bounded instructions on how to operate by the ones running it, without autonomy on how to organize the death panel decisionmaking. It's in the title - the "having" shows who is in control. These are not worker owned cooperatives. Nor are most state owned death panels.


> doctors

This is an incredibly poor way to act given that doctors usually have unlimited personal liability, even if they are employees
