...Binding and Hoche emphasized that "the incurably ill and the mentally retarded were costing millions of marks and taking up thousands of much-needed hospital beds. So doctors should be allowed to put them to death."

Then came Adolf Hitler, who thought this was a splendid, indeed capital, idea.

Scary thing is, I've seen FReepers reiterate those exact same arguments as to why Terri should be terminated. "It's costing taxpayers too much money." "Who might be able to use that hospital bed she's taking up right now?" Brrrrr! I've got shivers.

As a mere mortal woman I might condemn those men to a lifetime of 'night sweats' and 'hot flashes'....God has something even greater in store for them.

The truth of it is your afraid of death not all of the world has the resources to keep things living. I live in a retirement home where death is sometimes welcomed.
