My answers do not differ from yours. Why would you assume differently?

Well, let's see:

A 'Duty To Die' In An Advanced Civilization?

 

If you are looking to off granny because she’s a PITA, that is one thing. Of course there is no “duty to die” in this case.

If you are saying that there may be limits to life-extending medical care that the government won’t pay for in the future like it does today - and if pursuit of such care will bankrupt your survivors and leave them destitute, then I would say there IS a hypothetical duty to not pursue such care and be left to your fate.

It's pretty clear that YOU support a "duty" to die.

If you are saying that there may be limits to life-extending medical care that the government won’t pay for in the future like it does today - and if pursuit of such care will bankrupt your survivors and leave them destitute, then I would say there IS a hypothetical duty to not pursue such care and be left to your fate.
