But you have to ask yourselves what kind of a society would we become if we decided that when one needs care the most, it will be denied because of the cost (and, let’s face it, their lack of current productivity).

And this is exactly what the utilitarian socialists who comprise the culture of death want.

“Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness”

What an old outdated concept. Bring on Obamacare and the death squads. /s

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Take money away from people in the name of giving them "free" health care, then when they need it tell them it is too expensive.

If they had left the money in the hands of its rightful owners, it wouldn't be their decision.

That's why they wanted to take over health care.

People are going to have to answer for this on the Day of Judgment..

[Drill Thrawl]

They want death. I say give it to them.

The cull of useless eaters begins. Too many defects per 1000 lines of code? No food for you. You're not worth feeding. The old and sick get culled first. The welfare slackers next. When the government gets to choose who is worthy of life...watch out.

The socialist ideology is a death-cult. A shame it’s followers couldn’t learn to enjoy life. However, if they feel the need to exit early; who am I to prevent them from doing so . . .

I don't know how or when we make a decision that one person's life needs to be saved at all costs while another has the duty to die. One way to make such a decision, and IMHO, the only fair way is to say it can never be the taxpayers' duty to care for any anonymous creature regardless of age or status or putative duties.

When we decide it's the taxpayers' job to pay for maximum possible health, we are on an unavoidable collision course that must lead to the downfall of the civilization that assigns that job to taxpayers.

The United States is on such a course today. The cost of taxpayer maintenance of maximum possible health for all citizens will consume us.

If we take the taxpayer out of the equation, the decision will be made by God and Mother Nature, and that is the only fair way to handle such things. People can take responsibility for their own health with such things as savings and actuarial tables.

When we each have done all we can or choose, we must put the rest in the hands of God.

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

The duty to die will exist very soon. The only real question remaining being: What particular demographic will have the duty imposed upon them?

[Prospero]

This is the inevitable situation that arises first when medical "costs" are presumed to be public costs, and second, after that first presumption leads to socialist medicine schemes, like "Obamacare."

Of course, after abortion's line is crossed infanticide and "duty to die" are inevitable also.

Call it what you will. I call it evil.

I swear, a week ago I went to bed in a normal world and woke up in Logan’s Run. Where’s Harold Camping when you need him?

As I recall, the NHS will not provide dialysis to patients over the age of 50. But what the hell, at least it’s “free.”

[trisham]

Why even have doctors? Think of the money that we could save if we stopped using antibiotics! What about surgery? WAY too expensive. Vaccinations? Get rid of those and the savings would be substantial.

Let's get serious here and really do something about this issue. Money. It's the most important thing, isn't it? Well, other than Mother Earth.

[Theodore R.]

This was advocated by CO Governor Lamm in the mid-1970s. Did Prescott Bush also take this line in the early 1950s?
