The joke on America is that if judges can diregard the law than they can disregard living wills arbitrarily.

Oh my. The joke is bigger than that. Sign a living will? Risk starvation. The model Liveing Will in Florida statutes calls for starvation as the manner of death. The outcome is buried in the definitions, as a normal interpretation of the language cares for the patient. But the legal parsing results in death by starvation.
