Life is a valuable resource. We're all 'renewables', to a point. Taking the life of another American is a serious issue. I see Dr.Jane Hodgson just died at age 91, a proponent of 'choice'...well not the child's choice, of course. I hope she found forgiveness for taking human lives. Post traumatic stress syndrome occurs with abortion and euthanasia--with the taking of another's life. Don't do it. There are some things you just can't take, and that would be the life of another human being. Just say no... The government does have control of our bodies in many instances like forcing children to stay in school, and forcing adults to pay taxes and forcing all of us to drive on the right side of the road--I like that. And, I fully expect the government to protect life ...except when there is a need for self defense--personally or nationally. It amazes me that a civilized society would pay Planned Parenthood to destroy children. It further amazes me that the Children's Defense Fund doesn't object. I am an amazed woman, more often than I care to be. "Every Child Matters"...no every child doesn't matter. I see that new moniker on candidate surveys, and wonder why someone doesn't notice the outcomes. People who 'matter' aren't deliberately put to death in the womb or in a room without food and water. Everybody matters--now that's a fact and facts are stubborn things.
