[quote:Anonymous Coward 5141990:MV8yMTE3NTQ3XzM1NzEwMzcxXzY4MEIxMzk2] There is nothing wrong with having options in life about life. Unless you are stepford cookie cutter sheep. I loved how all the 2nd amendment people went on and on about how wonderful Switzerland was...a gun in every house, a gun for everyone. Que; deer in field, beautiful people, safe homes....LOL! Did you forget about their unrestricted abortion and assisted suicide for the love of your precious guns. Americans could never do this....to many dumbass hangups about life and death. [/quote]
Original Message
JAPAN'S finance minister Taro Aso said the elderly should be allowed to "hurry up and die" instead of costing the government money for end-of-life medical care.
Aso, who also doubles as deputy prime minister, reportedly said during a meeting of the National Council on Social Security Reforms: "Heaven forbid if you are forced to live on when you want to die. You cannot sleep well when you think it's all paid by the government.
"This won't be solved unless you let them hurry up and die," he said.
