So it's okay with you to starve a woman who has become disabled. How do you suggest we treat people who are born disabled? Should there be a panel to decide which lives are worthy of being lived? And then what?

She is a vegetable, her brain does not function and has turned in a liquid state. And to top it off it was her wish (as decided by numerous courts) that she not live like this.

Stop forcing your views and morality on this poor women and let her die as she wanted.

hmmmm, so it is HER wish as DECIDED by the courts . . .

substituted judgment is a very powerful tool to invoke, is it not, along with "the right to die".

Well, a lot of us are justifiably wary about substituted judgment giving us a "right to die" without our consent and against our true wishes.

But don't worry about that. Just calm down and get a glass of water.

No, she is not. Prominent physicians have said as much.

Sorry, she never asked to be starved or dehydrated.

I notice you didn't answer my question.

What should we do with people who are born disabled?

Your views of biology are peculiar, to say the least - humans cannot become vegetables. That phrase was coined to dehumanize the helpless.
