I will gladly weigh my conservative credentials against yours nOOb, any time.

No way for survival? Why don't you wait and see? What is the rush to starve to death someone who is showing signs of improvement?

Should we do away with ICUs, figuring that anyone hurt that bad can't recover?

What about ventilators for people with pneumonia? They can't even breathe on their own.

After all, all that stuff is expensive.

What I got from your posts is that it is all about the money. Hang the fact that the child might be a material witness to attempted murder (her own), and maybe some of those who would pin that on the accused have a motive for wanting the girl dead.

I quote you : Food and water would be fine, but we are talking an exteme amount of money to keep them alive. I am pro-life as far as abortion, but Euthanasia is a totally different thing. Do you realize how expensive this could be when the Baby Boomer start demanding to stay alive with no chance of a normal life. It shutters me to think that this would destroy the economy.

Just who do you think built the d@mned economy in the first place? The same people (baby boomers)who are shelling out good money for extended care policies at their insurers today.

That child is no 'baby boomer', just a kid who got the crap beaten out of her, apparently on a regular basis.

Do you think she deserved that? She is not some stray puppy to be kicked and put down.

As for liberal, no, the liberals would kill her in a heartbeat, because they have no compunction about slaughtering innocent children before, during, or, in this case, after birth, and money has always been one of the first excuses they use to deprive people of fundamental rights.

Maybe you should reexamine what you think.

First of all, I was generalizing. I did not know it was a little girl on a ventilator. I was just ONLY speaking of future medical costs for people who have absolutely no chance of becoming alive again...ever. I am not talking ICU's or anything like that and I should have been more precise with my answers on what I was talking about. I don't believe that I was talking about a person who went in for surgery and something went wrong and needs additional care. Nothing like that at all. Only folks who ABSOLUTELY have no chance of survival. I hope everyone didn't think I was talking about some crazy idea of ok 80 and out sorta thing. No way. I hope my parents live until 100 plus...
