You say "us" as if you have any say in it, same as old boy was earlier, that's what this Johnny foreigner crap is all about, I'm sure they thought it wasn't beyond them to implement a system that ended suffering to the end stages of the terminally ill but guess what, it was beyond them and before you say ours would be different you only have to look at the very first post in this thread, the one where a then key government advisor on health and someone who is incredibly influential on medical ethics advocated euthanising dementia sufferers as the were
wasting people's time and were a burden on the state, she also hoped to use her words
eventually people would be licenced to put others down , that's her vision on how this would turn out, somewhat different to yours and old boys and unlike you two she actually has influence. I have no doubt even if it was implemented in the way you suggest it'd soon get watered down and open to abuse.
