The executive branch of government does not have the power to expand Medicare because funding is needed to do that and only Congress can approve the funding.

What exactly does 'dying with dignity' mean?


it means being able to tell everyone else who thinks they know what's best for you to leave you the hell alone. CHOICE.


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

HOWEVER the PC version of 'dying with dignity' is:

1. family doesn't feel uncomfortable
2. good conversation about how 'peaceful it was'
3. controlled by 'professionals' just in case it seems something is wrong(albeit death perception) for someone to blame because one feels bad about pending death of loved one.
4. dignity has different meaning/perception by all, maybe the government could clear this up for the plebs so that the conversation at the donut shop will be calm.


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......
