I've agreed with alot of things SuchFriends has said in the past, but in this case he seems to be equating people who are unhappy with their lives and want to kill themselves with terminally ill vegetables being put out of their misery. I don't want anyone who's healthy and has a lot to contribute to the world to off themselves, but I'm hoping one day euthanasia will be an option for terminally, gravely ill patients. I mean' if you're basically gonna die anyway, why not do it quickly and painlessly rather than lingering for months/years and allowing the hospital/hospice/care center to rape your loved ones with the bill? Frankly, I think the reason why euthanasia is opposed in the medical world is because there would be no need for drugs to treat symptoms of terminal diseases if it was allowed. Quality of life, not just quantity.
