How unblievable it is what I'm reading.
This is the United States of America, we do not kill our handicapped people to save money. I take it next you'll be going into all the institutions for the mentally retarded and putting them out of their misery as well?
Thousands are allowed to die in the USA in this manner every week. There was nothing unusual about it. The only thing unusual about it was an organized political movement which made what was normally a private concern a public one.
And we are not speaking of "handicapped" people but people with nothing of life left but a semblence. No society can spend millions on such cases of which there are thousands at any given time. It simply isn't possible. Nor would it have even been an issue at any time but recently since individuals cannot afford to pay for this only socialized medicine can. Patients simply were allowed to die until recently.
