Hospitals can’t keep all vegetative patients alive in their hospitals for days, months, or years on end

I think there will be medical advances if this becomes an issue.

Euthanasia-enthusiasts are pessimists who do little or nothing to help mankind.

“Euthanasia-enthusiasts are pessimists who do little or nothing to help mankind.”

It’s not euthanasia and never was considered so until just a few years ago, when all of you types started coming out of the woodwork to try to guilt trip people all over this country who make decisions at the ends of their relatives lives all the time. You’d like to make decisions which were once the purview of the families themselves into something it never was. They are letting their elderly relatives pass peacefully rather than be subject to needles, intraveneous hydration, feeding tubes, when normally they would have just died naturally, not kept alive like zombies by artificial means. Sorry most ordinary folks don’t measure up to your moralistic purity.
