Mass murder always begins with the weak and defenseless, and usually it is claimed that the killings will save money.

Donald R. McClarey
Cradle Catholic. Active in the pro-life movement since 1973. Father of three, one in Heaven, and happily married for 43 years. Small town lawyer and amateur historian. Former president of the board of directors of the local crisis pregnancy center for a decade.
Nancy Pelosi said that we need abortion for all the money we will save..
Hitler adopted Margaret Sanger’s euthanasia policy as his final solution.
That is what Canada and Europe are doing to the sick and elderly now, and what all the west is doing to the pre-born. It is insane that we defeated Hitler only to become like him.
In a similar vein, I’m sure many have seen that, in response to many of the recent stories in respect to organ “donation,” the NYT in an op-ed has predictably decided that the definition of death needs to be modified to increase the amount of organs that can be harvested. WM Briggs has a good post on the whole subject:

I’ve always refused being an “organ donor,” I wouldn’t trust the modern medical establishment to do the right thing. What evil people will do in the name of compassion is amazing.
In thinking about the medical profession and the influence they have when parents are faced with the knowledge that their baby has Downs Syndrome, the “option” to terminate fits into the topic at hand. FEAR mongering to put it plainly.
I came across this story and found it worthy to share. I hope you do too. Life is a treasure not to extinguish regardless of the so-called professional class;

A YouTube video popped up to me over the weekend about a man that woke up as they were harvesting his organs. The comment was “wonder how many didn’t wake up because it was already too late.”
Once I saw how quickly abortion and transgenderism was integrated into what doctors are supposed to do, I lost all faith in their ability to determine that I was really dead. No organ donation for me.
I do not trust doctors as a class. Their trade is too materially pragmatic to be trusted to seek the will of God. Additionally, the tendency toward pride is seldom even resisted.
I have trusted *individual* doctors, but the likelihood of the doctors you know being the ones that will be there at the end of your life is exceedingly slim. The ER doc or the ambulance tech or the nursing home staff will not be your GP. This is a Hallmark of our increasingly anonymous society, a concept that also makes it easier to kill off the elderly, infirm, and inconvenient precisely because they are not personally known to the practitioner.
I agree with the sentiments above. I’m not sure if it’s the same in the USA, but I’ve noticed that school leavers who go into medicine are doing it for the wrong reasons.
It takes a certain type of character to be a good doctor. And it’s not just about intellectual intelligence.
Personal ego, parental ego, Parents pushing children to be doctors in order to earn big bucks. It’s prevalent in certain cultures. A high level of Medical Students who are highly intelligent but lack empathy or morals are going into the medical field.
The problem starts from there. Not to mention the relative “ethics” now taught in Universities.
Medicine is big business. From the GP, to the pathologist, to the specialist, to the surgeon, to the hospital. The modern system is designed to financially benefit each practitioner along the way. Cases of medical negligence in private hospitals is growing and no one is held to account. Question everything when it comes to your health and get 2 or 3 opinions. And trust your gut. Always trust your gut. You know your body better than any doctor.
I would really like to agree to be an organ donor (I did select it on my drivers license as a 17 year old) but changed my mind years ago for fear of the sinister element of organ donation.
Years ago I had “organ donor” on my driver license. When my MD brother found out, he told me get that off my license ASAP. I did. He also said do not have a DNR, due not resuscitate. His thinking is that there are too many doctors who are inclined to euthanasia. The older the patient, the more so.
Having been bedside when each of my parents died I felt that some doctors were vultures.
