“American Auschwitz Bill” - That is a keeper.
Years ago when my grandpa was visiting us, (he was 89 at the time), in a discussion he said “all I want is TEN more years”. He wasn’t ready to cash in just yet. I thought at the time “what an incredible statement to make at his age. He died at 92. He had prostate cancer and diabetes for about 15 years. Should he not have been treated?
My brother in-law, may God rest his soul, died of cancer. While he was not elderly, he did eat up a large amount of health care dollars. After treatment, (while he never returned completely to his former physical self), he lived 10 quality years and fathered 3 more children. Worth the money? I NEVER want a government bureaucrat deciding who deserves to live and who doesn’t.
