GUEST,dianavan BS: To Pull Or Not To Pull The Plug (75* d) RE: BS: To Pull Or Not To Pull The Plug 09 Mar 08

I agree when you say if it is a choice only for the rich then it is no choice.

If, however, it was the doctors educated opinion that determined whether or not the person had a resonable chance of meaningful recovery and life support should end, it would be a medical decision, not a choice. No personal preference, no religion involved.

The only choice would be whether or not the family wanted to pay to keep the person alive. That is where choice would enter into the picture. If religion influences that choice, then the church or synagogue can offer assistance to those in need of financial help.

It should have nothing to do with tax-payer funded medical care.
