Description: Most of us respond quickly when asked for opinions about pornography, crime, or other moral issues facing America. But what do you say when asked, "When is it okay to remove a dying loved one from life supports? Is it ever appropriate to hurry the end of a terminal illness before pain becomes unbearable? How much money and effort should be used to save a person's life?" In short; when is it right to die?
