Theres zillions of holes in every part of our systems, the thought of legalising euthanasia with so many failings, mismanagement finanical restraint and incompetence, political corruption, corporate corruption, individual corruption at such a high, the thought of adding euthanasia of the most vulnerable people, putting them at the hands of such people and such a dangerous unreliable system, frightens me to death. No doubt it will do the same to these frail vulnerable old people too.
I cannot even begin to imagine how many safeguards this would need to have in place. How tight the vetting would need to be of every single person involved. I mean really the people running this country are already treating pensioners like dogs, theyre alreay up to their eyeballs in corruption at every level. backhanders, cash for questions, bribes to cops, bribes back and forth between journalists, cops and politicians...wars based on spin and lies, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of thousands....Do I think these people would lose sleep over the safeguards for vulnerable old people? [probably not
Let sleeping dogs lie, but dont let people kill them off
There are far more humane ways of improving the system we have. the entire nhs needs massive overhaul and I include the appalling standard of some areas of nursing in this too. people should never die of thirst in british hospitals, but its happened. all it takes is a 5 minute swallow test of salt and water to see if a patient can swallow.
we need to improve on and fix the system we have already got. we need to clean up our parliament and our corrupt media. before we can even consider diving into the nightmarish scenario of legally allowing euthanasia. evenn politicians know, once you open that particular door, there is no turning back and over the years as the system grows and the rates of euthanasia expands, more and more innocent people will fall victim to human error or human corruption
