Don’t forget heat in the winter; shade in the summer too.

Pat Buchanan wrote in “Death of the West” about the “free” Medical System in The Netherlands.

Old people more and more do not seek medical attention there because of the Euthanasia policies. They don’t want to be killed by their doctors.

This is similar to the theory that the only thing keeping Social Security in the black now are smokers. If everyone quit smoking, they would live longer and SS would go belly up from all the extra people being paid.

Honestly, no, I can't. But, then again, I can't imagine Billy Jeff running rampant in the White House again, either, so what do I know?

Nor can I. Makes me sick to think about it.

Teenage suicides are really cheap in the long run. Why are we trying to stop them?

Jeez, some of these researchers ought to get real jobs. Like flipping fatty cheeseburgers at Micky D’s.
