Euthanasia is cheaper than universal healthcare, so we need to use it on elderly


The legalization of medical assistance in dying will affect health care spending in Canada. Our aim was to determine the potential costs and savings associated with the implementation of medical assistance in dying.

Medical assistance in dying could reduce annual health care spending across Canada by between $34.7 million and $138.8 million, exceeding the $1.5–$14.8 million in direct costs associated with its implementation. In sensitivity analyses, we noted that even if the potential savings are overestimated and costs underestimated, the implementation of medical assistance in dying will likely remain at least cost neutral.

Euthanasia is cheaper than universal healthcare, so we need to use it on elderly

Hello A:

Nahh..

If you "use it on the elderly," you will be charged with murder.

Your link is a simple cost analysis, which speaks to costs. It is NOT a referendum on why we should snuff old people..

Fact is, an elderly person CAN decide for himself to commit suicide.. It's called "Dying with dignity in Canada"..

Look.. You're a sick puppy who wants to murder old people.

Not for long. Pretty soon we will decide for you. Why does anyone need to live beyond a productive age? Don't be selfish. This is about us not you. You had your turn.

Not if they change the law.

In several European countries, they are talking about it already. What use is an old person? They can't contribute anything to society other than being a burden. They've lived their life, and it is now time for them to move over for the next generation.

As an older person, you have a duty to die so that you won't be a burden on your family or the taxpayer or the system. It's not about the individual. You have to do your part for the group.

As a verminous piece of living shit with no redeeming moral qualities and a perspective about the value of life which even Adolf Hitler would be ashamed of, you should volunteer to die to make way for a version of the species which is likely to survive longer than five ecological minutes.

See, the thing about the Nazis was that they were perfectly comfortable with deciding when other people should die, but the overwhelming majority of them shit their breeches when the judicial system decided they needed to hang. Such is the nature of cowards.

I'd greatly appreciate it if you'd stop impersonating my accounts, btw. I don't want to be associated in any way with sickening filth like yourself.
