Why do American politician always use wrong statistics when they want to bash Holland….
Why do American politician always use wrong statistics when they want to bash Holland. Is this from the statistics agency from FOX news again?!
According to Rick Santorum is 10% of deaths "caused" by euthanasia, while the proper statistics say it's only 2%. He's make the statement that 50% of these euthanasia cases is not out of free will (something that is simply illegal and I cannot imagine that GPs all over the country are evil killing machines).
Because of this all old Dutch people are afraid of the hospital and take their care in another country…. So how come that the health care system is stretched to the max with the current after war generation, aren't they suppose to get their healthcare somewhere in Europe without euthanasia rights?!
"Obamacare leads America down the same road" – a right, of course, free (or accessibel to all) healthcare is evil and leads to killing sprees under the patients.
What a joke if this is the only way you can win elections….

The guy is just saying whatever gives him votes.
Anyways, there is a (far far burried) grain of thruth in what he said. There is one hospital that experimented with bracelets for people who didn't want AEDs used on them to restart their heart.
But I don't consider that as euthanasia if you make clear that no life saving treatment, like AEDs, should be used on you.
You are right. That is not euthanasia.
