And what if the person wants to be put down? Why should the state stop them from doing that? And that's with single-payer, insurance-based, or free market healthcare systems
Yep

To Fife - as long as they don't force it on people - I don't care - but I see where your concern is. Very very slippery slope.....

Little kid stands up in school and starts screaming about the Jews. Film at 11.
SJWs are a natural consequence of corporatism.

Iceland Eliminates People with Down Syndrome
CBS News reported earlier this week that Iceland is leading the world in “eradicating Down syndrome births.” One might be forgiven for assuming that Iceland has developed an innovative treatment for the chromosomal disorder. It turns out Iceland’s solution is much simpler, and much more sinister: using prenatal testing and abortion to systematically exterminate children with Down syndrome. This isn’t progress; it’s eugenics.

I call it progress, tbh.

What the fuck? When I talk shit about helicopters and gas chambers, I am joking around, but I don't get the impression you are even joking here. :!:

I have no doubt that you do. You're gonna love the way the state is going to eradicate cancer.

I am beginning to suspect that leftists like GCF are "anti-fascist" in meme only.

Not joking at all. We don't need humans born defective, and it's not like we can't make another one every month until the dice come up seven.

I'm aware that religious types are horrified by this, but that's my opinion. If we can eliminate genetic disease in our population, we can take a huge leap forward in human happiness.
