What right do you to have hundreds of thousands of dollars of medical care, which you won't pay for, to keep you alive a few months longer?

Presently, I have my own medical plan but the Federal Government (through those elected) has decided they also want to provide it. And who is going to make the determination that my life has no worth? Would that be you?There are all types of social programs and we all (including you) feed at the government trouth. Think about the tax breaks you take that someone else may not qualify for.

I'll pay for that, and I don't know you, and based on your post, I don't like you.

Well, I probably have paid for some of your relatives via any number of the SS programs, GI bills, student loans, etc. Should I ask for my money back because they were not worthy. I too worked hard and pay taxes and have for many years. What does liking me have to do with it? If you liked me, you would be willing to commute my sentence?

So what gives you the right? Why should I work damn hard at my job to keep you alive for a couple more months when you hate my guts?

Decisions regarding my life gives me the right and who determined I only have a couple more months? You have no right to take my life. Obviously, you think you are the only one that has worked hard and that makes you worthy to make decisions regarding others lives. Point me to where I said, I "hate [your] guts. I never said that. You need to develop some value for life and recognize that you too are taking from our society.

My family and I pay far more in taxes than we receive in benefits from the government. It's not even remotely close. And that goes for my relatives as well, except for my youngest brother who is a dipwad California school teacher.

If you think you're somehow entitled to health care that you can't afford on your own, in an effort to keep you alive for a couple more months, then you're a socialist. You think you have a right to take other people's money for an expensive and futile act of selfishness.

Your attitude is shared by too many, which is why we're going to face a health care crisis of enormous proportions quite soon.

If we spend $100,000 or more to prolong the life of each senior for a couple of months, where is that money going to come from?
