I hear people say the same things well at least they are alive. I just ask how is that living? They can't feed themselves, they have little to know comprehendtion that there is even another person in the room with them. others can't get up and walk to the restroom. how is that living? If it were me getting on in years or in a state where I am just a body with a machine doing the breathing and bags to catch bodily fluids in I pray that my family has the strength and courage to do the right thing and pull the plug.<br />I would rather make the hard choice of pulling the plug on a family member who lived a full life and is now in a condition that belittles the way they were than to serve my own selfish needs to prolong the person's suffering by prolonging the enevitable death of that loved one. Cruel, I bet a person doped up on Morphine and dying of cancer or somebody who can only blink one eye in response to a question would think otherwise.innervisionnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6686067344745953769.post-61432567610900230312009-08-06T12:26:39.581-05:002009-08-06T12:26:39.581-05:00You can write articles of a future with hope (the ...You can write articles of a future with hope (the Bible) or you can write articles of a future of despair (Hinduism). <br /><br />Let's have another bite of 'soylent green' and join the ranks of 'Mad Max' stories shall we?... lol.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6686067344745953769.post-50828219881716164592009-08-06T08:38:22.118-05:002009-08-06T08:38:22.118-05:00Yes you may reprint the article and distribute it....Yes you may reprint the article and distribute it.

All he is doing is watching the dominos fall and he is looking at the last one. Euthanasia is already being promoted as a means to die with dignity. The article is not suggesting that old people are murdered, but it does tell us that under universal health care, a bureaucracy which must watch the budget will simply flex its muscle to prevent wasteful spending on elderly people who are too old to be given the same consideration as younger people.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6686067344745953769.post-40814727748979494612009-08-06T03:37:00.649-05:002009-08-06T03:37:00.649-05:00Always got to take things to the extreme dont you?...Always got to take things to the extreme dont you?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6686067344745953769.post-52202450131694413872009-08-06T01:20:49.380-05:002009-08-06T01:20:49.380-05:00Great article and I think it will come true if the...Great article and I think it will come true if the liberals are allows to pursue their agenda.
