He is killing himself by removing his abilitiy to get above and beyond care through a job like everyone else. He chose to break the law, I did not force him so I would be doing nothing. I am not saying he should not get access to care, but he should not get this above and beyond care. Its excessive.

I've said it half a dozen times in this thread and not a single person has answered it:

Who gets to make the call whether people live or die?

I have the feeling that no one is answering me because they realize that there isn't a good answer and that such a decision is above and beyond the rights the government has to rule over people. No court is trying this man, no jury of his peers. It's an execution without trial.

I have said it. He should get the same care our servicemen get. Do our retired service men still under government care get this treatment? If they dont why should he? If our current men serving in armed forces would not get this care why should he? If they do get this level of care than i withdraw my disaproval of this. I am under the impression that he is getting care not even our armed forces would get.

Edit: Just to add dont insurance companies regularly make these kind of life and death decisions. Do they not say you are not covered and must foot the bill?
