We’re spending all this money on detention centers and ICE and we’re going to run out of immigrants eventually. Gotta have the next group of people ready so all that money doesn’t go to waste and we don’t have to lay off our newly hired thugs.

Check your state law. In some states it is very illegal to ignore a properly filled out DNR, religion or no religion.

Also, hospice is not state assisted suicide. Hospice is comfort care, and it’s not about causing someone to die, it’s about helping someone who is terminal be more comfortable during the time they have left.

Hospice is comfort care. It’s letting the person die naturally while doping them up on pain meds so they aren’t as miserable. It’s not state assisted suicide (that’s something else), it’s about not giving additional interventions to someone who is terminal anyway and helping them be as comfortable as possible with the time they have left. If the person is able to eat they can eat, and if they can’t eat on their own that’s an additional conversation between the patient and the family and their healthcare team. Normally they would not be tube fed, but sometimes people aren’t comfortable with that and then that’s additional conversations of what needs to be done. You don’t just go on hospice and instantly get starved, people are on hospice for weeks to months, that physically couldn’t happen if they are starving everyone.
