Assisted suicide?

[The Magic Pudding]

Back to non police assisted suicide.

It's common for ill people who have a means of suicide at hand taking comfort in it, it makes the pain easier to face. They know there's a way out if they can't take it any more.

There are a limited amount of dollars available to spend on health, I'd prefer the spending was approached rationally. Is it worthwhile attempting to save extremely premature babies, should money be spent in a desperate attempt to prolong a single life or to provide a better quality of life to twenty other people?

These are questions that may apply more to countries that supply a free health service rather than to the US.

If I worked for decades and had some money to leave to my children, I'd hate to think it was going to be frittered away keeping me alive an extra month. I think this would be more a problem in the US than in Aus though.
