Oregon is becoming a Nazi Socialist kakistocracy. Any legislator who votes for this bill should be considered as evil as a Nazi.
Here's the President of the Oregon Senate, a Demonicrat and the face of evil.

We're living through a time when there seems to be something new and alarming in the news every day. Our media cycle is dominated by the dramatic, and one consequence of this is that alarming events can unfold on the state and local level going unnoticed despite their ultimately national consequences.
One such example is before Oregon's state legislature. First introduced in January, an alarming bill, SB 494, would radically change the meaning of healthcare in that state, with the potential for national ripple effects.
SB 494 would put countless medically vulnerable persons at risk of a premature and untimely death, wiping out existing law that mandates food and water access for all patients who can naturally receive nutrition and hydration. In simple terms, patients who are awake, conscious, and aware could nonetheless be denied food and water—even by cup or spoon.

Just wait until Medicare gets unloaded on to the States. This will be the standard everywhere.
Does anyone want to bet against the EXEMPT being
exempt from this, too?
“In simple terms, patients who are awake, conscious, and aware could nonetheless be denied food and water”
I read the bill. Did not see that in the bill.
Approves of assisted suicide. Against the death penalty.
I guess this is one way to solve the social security funding problem. What have we as a society become?
It seems pretty clear from the article.
What is at issue here is that feeding by spoon has been reclassified from "basic and ordinary" care to "medical" care.
Basic and ordinary care is required for all patients. Medical care can be withheld if it is deemed to be medically futile.
I suppose sick infants could also come under this law because they are also fed by spoon.
Infanticide on the way
This crap always benefits the a$$ holes in the name of being “humane” to little ones
We are creating an industry for the psychos

The wonderful world of socialism.
You are so so very correct. Dehydration is the norm for the unwanted.
This sort of thing is inevitable in a socialist system and our medical system, while not yet technically socialist, emulates the results of such a system. At some point the doctors instructed by the bureaucrats will decide when you die if you don’t manage to get yourself killed in an accident or a (non medical) murder.
The article is bullshit. The OR legislation Hans NOTHING to so with assisted suicide.
That stated, the bill amounts to murder.
There is a new TV series out now called “Mary Kills People” all about this subject. It’s actually pretty good, so far.
Me: I read the bill. Did not see that in the bill.
You: “It seems pretty clear from the article. What is at issue here is that feeding by spoon has been reclassified from “basic and ordinary” care to “medical” care. Basic and ordinary care is required for all patients. Medical care can be withheld if it is deemed to be medically futile.”

What, exactly did you not see? The reclassification of feeding by spoon from basic and ordinary care to medical care?
Perhaps you can show me?
That is 30 pages of some seriously scary ****.
