I don't think God put an alternative feeding port in us, did he? Thus, if we are looking at God sanctioned aspects of life once one cannot feed themselves one dies in the God imposed course of life.


Really? What about all the elderly in the Care Facilities that can not feed themselves? Do we just not spoonfeed them? They cannot feed themselves. Should they just starve to death?

God have mercy on us all.

To: It's me
I want no part of the type of life that you describe in those facilities but that is just me. Nothing is more depressing than such places to me.

Then there is also the fact that most of the health care costs for individuals are spent attempting to prolong their lives for even a few months. They skyrocket during that period. I can see a time when almost all of our nation's health care budgets could be consumed by such costs if life is to be prolonged as long as there is a remote flicker detectable. At what point do we say we can't afford it? Certainly if individuals had to pay them they would not be paid except by the very wealthy.

It is very confusing to find those so opposed to taxation to do just such things so adament about this case. Maybe you can clarify it for me.

At some point the questions "how much will this cost" and "how will it be paid for and by whom" must be asked and answered. Certainly society will have to answer such questions not I (thank God.)
