We're like cheese. Everyone wants to take a bite.

People were doing it on the sly anyway,

Make me an offer I can't refuse, and you can have the taco stand,

If someone wants to pay him that much, good for him,

One of our problems as Americans is that we treat death as if it's an option instead of a reality. We tend to believe that technology can conquer everything. But no matter how healthy you are or how much medical care you get, you're still a mortal.

Americans continue treating death as if it's an option instead of a reality.

My father, who was a doctor, died of pancreatic cancer. But he was clear about what he wanted done and not done. No hospitals, no invasive surgeries. He had a living will, which is like a narrative of your life that you get to finish. It was his legacy -- what he wanted to leave his family: emotionally, financially, spiritually.

There is this argument that to me is rabidly fascist, which is that one's worth is in some way or perhaps completely determined by one's functionality, ... In other words, you cease to have moral worth or your moral worth is somehow lessened when you become disabled, demented, incompetent or terminally ill.

The language of the court decisions on the topic is quite frightening, ... One appellate court said that the state has a lessened interest in human life when that life is terminal. Think about that for just a second! If that doesn't turn things on its head!

To me, the moment that the state has a compelling interest in is precisely when human life is most vulnerable -- the very young, the very old, and all of us in between who is some ways are handicapped, disabled, are vulnerable to exploitation, ... Those of us who are able-bodied, who are able to articulate our own interests, who have access to all the resource in society, we really don't need the state's help. We'll do just fine. It's the others that concern me. And for the state to turn that argument on its head and say that as you approach your death, the state has less and less of an interest in your life, is to me completely bizarre.

There won't be any real news until next year. We're basically already on Christmas holiday, ... There really isn't much that could change the economic picture before then.
