(Wesley J. Smith / NRO) – Earlier this month, I noted that a U.K. columnist was pushing euthanasia for the elderly as a way of saving national resources.
I suggested that normalizing euthanasia leads to such crass beliefs, furthering our slide toward a perceived “duty to die” on the part of elderly, the seriously ill, and disabled people to help boost society and family resources.
Well, here we go again. That call has now been echoed by a Belgian health-insurance official for one of the five mutual-fund companies that provide the country’s mandatory health- and disability-insurance policies. CONTINUE
