[face the facts]

why not? its logical...why die painfully when you can die comfortably?
the main issue for govts is...1)some assholes who choose to die can commit devious crimes and hurt others before dying, 2)productive people who gets fed up of contributing to govt coffers may want to die instead of working like an ox all their life

As someone who works with people in healthcare, I can tell you that sometimes doctors struggle with the issue of prolonging or shortening a dying person's suffering. If you are very old, they even ask your family if they should resuscitate you if your conditions worsen. (Resuscitating you, may save your life, but you will be half-dead after coming out of ICU).

As a person who experienced the suffering and passing of family member passing right in front of their eyes, I will not object to the roles of these doctors in assisted dying.
