Ain’t that the truth and they go kicking and screaming when its their turn.
Though there have been abuses, hospice is wonderful for the terminally ill and the costs are very minimal. The “all the money will be used up” line is mainly a scare tactic employed by the culture of death. Also, disability and long-term care insurance is readily available at a very reasonable cost. There is no reason for anyone to die just to save money.
As I approach my golden years, I have no fear. Life ends and we have to accept that.
parsy, who will probably go quietly into that good night.
We could save a lot more by euthanizing liberals. (And we could save even more by guilting them into doing it themselves. What the heck... We could probably even get them to agree to pay a tax first and make money on the deal!)
You are absolutely correct, but there is no need to hasten death.
In truth, this penchant for murder alone justifies the creation of hospice care just south of the border in Mexico. The idea is to create something like a “duty free area” gated hospital zone, built by Americans, to provide extended stay health care.
There are lots of advantages. Prices are much lower. It is out of the hostile American legal environment. Far more care providers per patient. American doctors and English speaking Mexican workers
It is not a border crossing as such. Authorized Americans can cross the American side easily, and authorized Mexicans can cross the Mexican side easily, but neither group can go to the other country proper.
The zone would have several modern American built hospitals and specialty hospitals, and lots of extended care and hospice housing for a fraction of the cost in the US. Strictly cash, no insurance, Medicare or Medicaid, or malpractice outside of the Mexican law definition, would be permitted.
Medical therapies not available in the US could be used there, and there could even be accommodations for American families who were visiting their family member.
No Obamacare. No socialized medicine. No euthanasia. Far better service than at less than half the cost in the US.
my idea is pretty much the same except it involves floating hospital ships just outside of US territorial waters.

Lord Jesus, you healed so many people during your public ministry. I bring before you now, in prayer, all those who are terminally ill -- those afflicted with cancer, AIDS, and other illnesses.
|
|
Look lovingly and compassionately upon them. Let them feel the strength of your consolation. Help them and their families to accept this cross they are asked to carry. Protect them from euthanasia, Lord.
|
|
Let them see you carrying their cross with them, at their side, as you once carried yours to Calvary. May Mary be there, too, to comfort them.
|
|
Lord Jesus, I know and believe that, if it is your will, you can cure those I pray for (especially N.). I place my trust in you. I pray with faith, but I also pray as you did in Gethsemane: your will be done.
|
|
Bless us, Lord, and hear my prayer. Amen.
