Precisely. You just got down to the REAL issue here (outside of the Satanic immorality, of course).

This is a cost saving measure to the socialized medical system. Kill off the defenseless sick old folks and you just cut the biggest cost in health care.

Two Thirds of all health care expenses for US Medicare, for example, are incurred in the last two weeks of life.
