(NRO) – We have seen how bad euthanasia can get when a (continually less) free country like Canada legalizes medicalized killing. But now a tyranny — Cuba — has joined the Let Doctors Kill Sick Patients Club. From the Reuters story:
Cuba on Friday became the second country in Latin America and the Caribbean to authorize euthanasia, following Colombia.
The Communist-run country’s National Assembly passed the measure as part of legislation updating the nation’s legal framework for its universal and free healthcare system. “The right of people to a dignified death is recognized in end-of-life decisions, which may include the limitation of therapeutic effort, continuous or palliative care, and valid procedures that end life,” the final draft of the legislation stated.
People have little freedom in Cuba but will now have “the right to die?” Talk about misplaced priorities. CONTINUE
