"Everyone already lives in danger of dying at any time. Why would anyone want to add to that threat the danger of the government allowing other people to kill them when they are sick, mentally ill, depressed, disabled or otherwise vunerable?" ... . . . Internet commenter.

"Once euthanasia is legal, the only remaining question is who can be killed? Euthanasia cannot be controlled because there is always a compelling reason to kill people at the most vulnerable time of their life." . . . Alex Schadenberg.

"Once a society embraces killing as an answer to suffering, the 'suffering' that qualifies for termination never stops expanding. Since lethal-injection euthanasia became decriminalized - and then, formally legalized - the killable caste has expanded from the terminally ill, to the chronically ill, to people with disabilities, to babies born with serious medical conditions, to the mentally ill, etc., etc., etc." . . . Wesley J. Smith.

THE ELDERLY

"Three elderly members of my summer parish in rural Quebec received a diagnosis of cancer at the local hospital . . . after the diagnosis had been delivered, the first question each of these people was asked was 'Do you wish to be euthanized?'" . . . writer George Weigel in 2016

    PEOPLE STORIES

    PEOPLE STORIES FROM THE NETHERLANDS

    "... I have been diagnosed as imminently terminal three times since my accident. Each time, my lifespan was supposed to be measured in days. The difference is, all three times, every medical effort was made to save me. Physicians, insurance companies always thought that way.. They put the patient first an worried about the cost later. Adding legalized PAS (physician assisted suicide) in, could be the last building block in the destruction of that system. ... When the cost factor is added in, our odds get rapidly worse. With health care professionals being forced by insurance companies/bureaucracies to balance cutting costs against what's in the best interest of their patient, add in legalized PAS and the possibility of being offered a cheap end to your life as opposed to an astronomically expensive long term plan of treatment is all to real." ... from a statement by a man with a disability.

    "It was yet another attempt to show that the life of a disabled person has no value." ... wheelchair and ventilator-dependent author Jason Mitchener commenting on the movie "Million Dollar Baby"

    "Once the syringe-bearing genie is out of the bottle, who can say what homicidal wonders he may next perform?" ... Don Feder in A Jewish Conservative Looks at Pagan America
