artchill: I don’t exactly know what issue you are addressing. The question I am addressing is whether the nurse is a callous and despicable person, for not caring that her following company policy was allowing a person to die in front of her.
My answer is “yes”, and I don’t think that the corporate policy is at all relevant to this question. I don’t know why you think corporate policy is relevant to that question, or if you are perhaps answering a different question, hence my explanation.
syag: I concur that many Americans including the daughter do not value human life. That is precisely what I am reacting to.
