NEW GENERATION GAP: IT USED TO BE, "DON'T TRUST ANYONE OVER THIRTY"; SOON IT WILL BECOME, "DON'T LET ANYONE OVER 80 LIVE."


POSTMODERN LEFTISTS ARE MAKING EUTHANASIA FOR SENIORS THE NEW PREFERRED MEDICARE TREATMENT FOR SENIOR-ITIS, AND IT MAY BECOME AS POPULAR AS ABORTION.

PETER HITCHENS - THE BETTER HITCHENS - HERE: How long until we abort the old too?

Are we going to do the same thing to the unwanted old that we do to unwanted babies? That is to say, are we going to kill lots of them off, and pretend that this is just fine?

I think so. The only question is how we will do it, and what we will call it.

Aborted babies are slaughtered by the tens of thousands, solely because they are inconvenient to young, busy people.

Old, ill parents are also going to become a major nuisance to the same generation, very soon indeed. Baby boomers are all secretly terrified that mum or dad will end up wasting away slowly in a care home, rapidly consuming the inheritance.

Attitudes towards the assisted suicides of conductor Sir Edward Downes and his wife Joan have highlighted society's questionable views of the value of life

Could this be why the argument for legalising ‘assisted suicide’ is becoming so strident? We are offered lots of weepy hard cases, where terribly ill people are desperate to die and their relatives insist they should be able to help them without any risk of prosecution.

READ THE WHOLE THING.

I CALL THE AGW ALARMISTS ECO-NUTSIES.

I'LL CALL THE POSTMODERN LEFTISTS WHO FAVOR GOVERNMENT-ASSISTED SUICIDE FOR OLDTIMERS EUTHANAZIS.

OR "SOYLENT GREENIES".
