But where does it stop?
Do whe then start going to court because a parent wants to end the life of a child with Cerebral Palsy?
What about people who've been in coma's for years on end? Should we devise some kind of Euthanasia machine for them?

The population is so in love with the idea that "we have been given a perfect governmental system, thanks to our benevolent ancestors the Founding Fathers", that they are blind to its crippling flaws.
In fact, the population is intellectually lazy, and unwilling to elect responsible leaders. They are prime candidates for allowing their system self-destruct into a monstrous tyranny.
