I find it fascinating how many comments argue that these lives aren't worth living in a forum that just a few days ago had a (albeit unscientific) poll that said that most of you are currently depressed. 55-45 when I checked it. I was surprised it wasn't higher. This despite being a population that largely skews young, educated, healthy, high earning, highly sought after. We hold the power to insist that ours are the "Good Values". We are the beautiful people Marlyn Manson sung about. And yet, a set of people who are largely unappreciative of the value of their own lives, are passing judgement the lives of the disabled. Why do you think their lives aren't worth living?

That’s not what anybody is saying. Are you offering to pay for the extra millions in lifetime care and need for those children?

  "That’s not what anybody is saying." Read the comments carefully " Are you offering to pay for the extra millions in lifetime care and need for those children" Where in my comment do I suggest that I wouldn't support the Billions (with a B in the US, you're off by three orders of mag) needed? Yes. I believe that a healthy, just society that has any semblance of a future has a moral obligation towards its needy. Question. Where does your prejudice (i.e. pre-judging) that I wouldn't support extra Billions come from?
