Every state will enact this, lobbied by the healthcare insurance industry.
ReplyDeleteWhen you become ill, they will ask you to kill yourself so that they do not have to pay for your care.
Every state should have it.
ReplyDeleteWhoa!
ReplyDeleteI wonder how long until they make this mandatory at a certain age ?
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts too
DeleteSend one of these vouchers out to Maxine Waters, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, I could go on, but there's not enough column inches in one of these panels. LOL!
ReplyDeleteYou just don't get it when you are so ravaged by disease, in constant pain and no relief in sight, you should have the right to end your own suffering by request. I have seen some bad deaths and frightening experiences it is a mercy to be out of pain and with our Lord.
ReplyDeleteWe need to start in Washington DC with this, clear out the living dead in congress and senate!
ReplyDelete7:42 not sure who you are speaking to. we get it. and so does the insurance industry. and so does the government. eventually all that is pure get tainted. doesnt matter if there is good intent, it will be used against you and for evil. wake up to the bigger picture. you dont need a doctors permission to kill yourself.
ReplyDeleteThank God I divorced her. Now, I don't have ti go there!
ReplyDeleteDid Pelosi and Waters sign up for it?? One can only hope.
ReplyDeleteFigures California would approve and legalize suicide. We are all God's children and it is up to God to determine our soul's outcome. I understand pain and suffering and I have seen the ravages of cancer. Thank God I am not suffering with any pain but I do believe everything is God's will and those who suffer on earth will enjoy eternal peace and life in a better place.
ReplyDelete9:08 No, it is not Gods will that we suffer.
ReplyDeleteIf you are ever in enough pain , you
would want to die, believe me.
I hope , pray this is an option for all
Americans !
Americans think they are free.
ReplyDeleteWe don't even have the right to end our own lives?
The government must give us this "privilege"?
