That matches so well with abortion. </EXTREME RIDICULE of this
M.D. = Merchant of Death — is this what it’s coming to?
Getting paid to kill people? Why didn't *I* think of that?
I think if we want euthanasia, there should be a lot of onerous requirements just to get to that point. That way, we discourage it unless family members, the patient’s primary care doctor, and the executor of the patient’s estate all agree to the procedure.
Those physicians who shirk from inducing an economic rate of euthanasia, will themselves be euthanized.
I was a “hell no this is wrong” person. Now that I am 55 and my parents and other loved ones are at deaths door, my position is not so concrete. It is tough to watch crazed seniors, with dementia so bad they have no idea what they are doing, who they are or what is going on around them.
I sure as heaven don’t want to put my kids through what my mom is putting my dad and I through.
There is plenty of money to be made in the last months of a terminally ill patient’s life. You are going to have to give them some incentive if you want them to kill off a golden goose.

Sarah Palin was an idiot for suggesting Obamacare would lead to Death Panels. /s
I saw a family member through ten years of vascular dementia. At no time did I consider killing her.
My advice to my fellow boomers is simple: stay healthy. Those who will be making these decisions for us have been well indoctrinated.
I’ve been my husband’s caregiver for nine years, with hopefully many years to come. It’s hard work. It’s heartbreaking. It’s exhausting. I do not consider murder to be a viable solution to the problems we face. I screen out people who do think that’s a viable solution. If I fail, and one of you gets through, and succeeds in carrying out your solution, you will live just long enough to regret it.
I was docked a full grade for predicting this in a mid-term biology exam over 40 years ago.
Didn’t seem to affect my career in Aerospace.
This is a real life horror movie.
God Bless You.
I’m 76 and I have many serious ailments, and many doctors. Every time i visit one, the first question they ask is: Do you have any advance directives? I always get the feeling they are searching for a way to “put me down”, like I’m a 22 year old dachshund that’s had his last meal. I have to keep working to pay for these blood suckers, and all they want to do is put me away.
That knowledge gives a certain peace. Sometimes, grandchildren, or others of the current generations may observe and learn life lessons for themselves.
Just a thought . . . .
