Uncertain where to put this.....

but since it is ultimately about money controlling every aspect of our lives I chose this.

It's time for death with dignity in America.

Just ask Scott Adams.

Adams, the creator of the popular Dilbert cartoon, recently posted an open letter on his website, discussing the prolonged agony that his father was going through during his last days this planet.

Adams writes in part, "I hope my father dies soon. And while I'm at it, I might want you to die a painful death too. I'm entirely serious on both counts."

He continues, "My father, age 86, is on the final approach to the long dirt nap (to use his own phrase). His mind is 98% gone, and all he has left is hours or possibly months of hideous unpleasantness in a hospital bed. I'll spare you the details, but it's as close to a living Hell as you can get."

My mother-in-law lived for 7 weeks after voluntarily stopping her medications. 7 weeks being bedridden, blind, paralyzed, and increasingly delusional. My Golden Retriever stopped eating, the vet did a test and told us it was probably liver cancer. When she started to have trouble standing we called in a vet. She closed her eyes and was gone in a very peaceful moment.

We should treat ourselves as well as we treat our pets but the jesus freaks and their health business asshole buddies won't allow it.

Fuck all of them.

I agree entirely.

THere's nothing worse than watching someone slipping away, sometimes in a lot of pain, often with no mind left, and not having an option to end their suffering.
