Comatose Mass. Girl Responds to Stimuli (Haleigh Poutre)

"The most expesnive piece of equipment in a hospital is the feeding tube."

But Fearless Leader has solved this budget crisis! He has outlawed forever the use of MRI machines and CAT scans because they are so much more expensive than feeding tubes!

It is only infidels who say people should live when they're no longer forty somethings!

Those infidel spawn of unwashed dogs will be taught their DUTY TO DIE to maintain insurance CEO's profit margins!

I curse their mustaches!

They are terrorists and will be hunted down and brought to justice. As I speak they are flaccidly impaling themselves on their beebers!

Their lives are not normal and they are doing their duty to terminate themselves!

I STILL wear a propeller beanie in the shower!

SO THERE!

BA-HEH-HEH! Good work, Bob!

"I didn't actually advocate anything of the sort. I was just pointing out that this debate is in large part about money, even though it is not mentioned."

Are you kidding? Most of what's going on here is about money, and it was mentioned explicitly several times before you showed up.

"Are you willing to pay higher taxes to keep people in this situation alive? That is the key question. You can't have a culture of life without being willing to pay for it. So are you?"

It is an important question. Let's get practical and pragmatic, and be good sound businessmen, shall we. None of this theoretical crap. Let's put a price tag on it.

Let's start with the pricetag on your life. How much is your life worth to you?

How much, in dollars and cents, would you be willing for the tax of an average individual to rise to keep you - and just you alive?
Fill in amount here: $__.__

How much potential gross income would you be willing for a private insurance company to forgo to keep you - and only you -alive?
Fill in amount here: $__.__

If either of there amounts were to be exceeded, would you voluntarily die?
Yes_____ No______

"This latest post and your failure to respond to the original concern about your propensity to want to kill the infirm verifies that you are so obviously juvenile."

His failure to respond to it verifies he knows he's been busted. It also verifies he knows his position is untenable, but he isn't big enough to acknowledge it.

"What I mean is that when it gets to the point that their is no way for survival and people are wanting to keep the person on all those tubes for sentalmental reasons that is the only time I am talking about"

Hold on, Junior. If that's all you meant, then why didn't you come out and say so from the start. You could have expressed it as above, instead of advocating offing the boomers if their lives aren't normal, just to save some bucks for the economy (#47) - and expecting us to know that's what you meant by it. If that's what you really meant.

Nah, who am I kidding. A person's first take on a subject usually reveals how he feels about it deep down in his heart and soul. And you've revealed a soul that craves genocide for profit.

Either that, or you're so incoherent that you can't express what you mean the first time, and instead express it as something entirely different.

Either one of those, or you're trying to backtrack and deny having said what you did, and you're too slow witted (or cocky) to realize that everything you've said on this thread is still there for anyone to read.

Remember that self defense I mentioned would come from the entire generation you proposed to eliminate for profit? Will that self defense take the form of words only? Think.
