• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Doctors in Canada think they make too much and others make too little

Back to the subject of medical ethics, Call the Canadian system SOCIALIST or whatever you wish but in my opinion it works great.Pretty well every civilized country in the world has a socialized health system except the USA.Does this mean we are all socialist and wrong and the US is the only one that has it right. Our doctors are free to start there own private practice the same as our dentists,optometrists, audiologists etc. and charge what they wish. They are also free to leave our country and practice elsewere including the USA but I have never seen a line up of doctors trying to cross the border or leave period. Maybe I am wrong but I think we have a wonderful system and would not want it any other way even if all systems has its flaws. Everyone to there own opinion.
All the best

The bottom line is that those that responded felt I was trying to start something controversial; so, I removed it. I read the article all the way thru, and just found it interesting, and was not intending to take one side or the other. I actually felt that no one else but you would read the entire article, and I don't believe those that responded did. :dontknow: And, thanks for reading.

I saw those comments and I can understand why others might have felt that way, but I didn't. It is a very thought-provoking article, addressing many controversial issues (e.g. allocation of scarce public resources, legal vs. religious definitions of death, society's obligations to pay for the consequences of someone's belief-based decisions, the role of science vs. religion in making public policy, etc.)

Your question was really quite limited; is anyone committing murder by pulling the ventilator system from this woman? My opinion is NO, but that is based on my personal beliefs not on any legal or medical protocols, which I'm not qualified to address.
 
Hi Pete,

Re: It's small-minded people and attitudes like yours that continue to divide communities, not political leaders.

Yup,

Let's talk about redistribution of wealth.........

I am a strong believer in "a hand up, not a hand out" and I help through my church and several charities as I am able. A good start to helping out is called a "tithe". 10% of one's income. It would be an interesting study of how many politically conservative versus politically liberals actually give at least a tithe to those who need it.

giving charity out of the goodness of your heart is a lot different then taking someones money and then distributing a percentage as that person sees fit.

don't tell me what to do with my money and i won't tell you how to have sex with your wife!!

You're creating an issue where none exists.

You live with "liberals" all around you whether you choose to acknowledge us and our contribution to society or not. We are everywhere, including LEO, military, churches, gun owners, business owners and executives. There aren't enough of you to 'round us up and send us to Canada'.

Why do you feel the need to bash everyone who doesn't buy into the far-right-wing propaganda, which incidentally is the MAJORITY in this country?
