President of Belgian health insurance company promotes euthanasia as solution for aging population

Luc Van Gorp, president of Christian Mutuality, pushed suicide for older people who are ‘tired of life’ and shockingly described the elderly as a ‘mountain of meat’ that ‘starts to smell.’

The president of Belgium’s largest health care fund has promoted euthanasia as a solution for the country’s aging population problem.

Luc Van Gorp, head of Christian Mutuality (CM), pointed out that the number of people over 80 in Belgium will double up to 1.2 million by 2050, putting large financial pressure on the health care system and insurance companies.

According to De Specialist, Van Gorp said the problem cannot be solved with more money and called for “a radically different approach.”

“Doctors and other health professionals are now doing their utmost to make everyone live longer, but for what purpose? Living longer is not an end in itself, is it? It must first of all be about the question: how long can I live with quality [of life].”

It is the globalist way. Most people are “not needed”.

If I was old and wanted to die, I’d outlive this clown.

Hey, if you’re OK with murdering babies in the womb, what’s to stop you from offing a bunch of useless old geezers? See how the slippery slope works? Who’s next?

Every single bit of the Left is ultimately aimed at killing people and drastically reducing the human population. Reducing it to nothing, if possible. Homosexuality, abortion, feminism, euthanasia, green energy, experimental medicine, weird food mandates. All of it is about reducing population. It’s Satanic at it’s core.

Countries with Socialized Medicine effectively have Euthanasia, at least for those who cannot ensure private care. Want a knee? 5 year wait, in a wheelchair, for example.

“A mountain of meat that starts to smell.”
Wow. How hateful and disrespectful. What happened in his life to make him so devoid of compassion and empathy?
This is the head of that organization speaking publicly in this manner.He must not expect any pushback.

Isn’t interesting that everyone who supports this stuff sees themselves as occupying seats on the death panel.

Nazi Socialists revived and well. Murderous bastards proving the low level of civilization they manage. Piles of meat indeed. What’s next, Soylent Green.

You volunteer first useless eater Luc van Gorp Christian Mutuality f’n INSURANCE COMPANY. Like the old HMOs who said the best member is one who dies early having paid premiums and not accessed care prior to dying. Banking their dead money, unreturnable of course.

There was a mathematician, Viteoris I believe, who wrote a research paper at age 82. His last paper was written at age 102 and he passed away at 110.
