Social Justice, Doctor Assisted Suicide Don’t Mix

Social Justice, Doctor Assisted Suicide Don’t Mix « True Dignity Vermont: Part of the motivation behind doctor prescribed death is cost control. . . . People pay into the “system” which pays for their health care when they need it. It really does not matter whether the “system” is a commercial insurance company or a tax-payer funded system such as Medicare or Medicaid.

Society has chosen (up to this point in time) to put this system in place; and that system really should work for everyone who needs it. Breaching that societal agreement by encouraging some people to kill themselves is a most serious violation of trust and a betrayal of us all.
