You are wrong on this issue. The government forced death by starvation upon this woman and you make economic arguments in support of it? You should be ashamed of yourself. "A righteous man regards the life of his animal, but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel". Proverbs 12:10. The wicked claim they are being merciful, but the are only being cruel.
The financial considerations are not even at the top of the reasons I support the judge's decision not even close.
But the truth doesn't matter to your side as is easily seen by what is believed by it. Attack with misinformation, disinformation, insults and outright falsehoods rather than face it.
