Time for commercially-assisted suicide?

Indeed. Moreover, Kipke’s article demonstrates why assisted suicide/euthanasia isn’t medicine! Those who pretend otherwise merely seek to harness the authority of the doctor in service to the culture of death.

It is sickening how far the culture of death has encroached upon human rights.

No.

No, it is not time for commercially assisted suicide.

If it's Liberals. . . I'll supply the quarters. . .they're the ones who want it. . .

[rarestia]

I, for one, am all for this. The idiot leftists and those who genuinely don’t want to burden society with their presence will off themselves, and in a few decades, the life-loving lot of us will say, “Okay, that’s enough of this. You all had your fun, eradicated the Darwin award winners among us, and now it’s time for the adults to take control of the party again.”

*Note: Sarcasm is somewhat implied, but there’s a tinge of thoughtful truth to this.

Soylent Green is people.

It certainly is cost control for Medicare.
IIRC it costs @250K to die naturally in medical care facilities.
At $9K a pop, imagine the savings.

[corlorde]

Yep, time to start handing out pills to the brain dead dems before they not only kill themselves, but the rest of us too.

Soylent Green came first.

Edward G. Robinson's assisted suicide in that movie (to the strains of Beethoven's Pastoral Symphony) was one of the most memorable movie moments of the time.

First thought to come to my mind.

[FlingWingFlyer]

I used to think all that stuff in those 60s movies was so weird. It wasn’t weird, it was a warning. We’re seeing it now.

[LucianOfSamasota]

Liberals should have this right.

Really.

[duffee]

Would they advertise? on TV and radio? would they take credit cards? would they give discouts for mass suicides? premiums such as toaster for first time customers? would funeral parlors do this? I don’t really believe this would be a good thing, the next step would be for some government agency to take it out of private hands and the agency would determine who needs to commit suicide and put out a contract, maybe take bids.

One day there will be suicide centers, with a nice-sounding name. All paid for by medicare, of course.

[trisham]

Why is Bioethics so unethical?

it will be part and parcel with Obummercare’s death panels. It will be the suggested government 'final solution’ to your health problems.
