Legalization.

[Dystopia]

Assisted suicide is the same as euthanasia? Or am I confusing? If so, it's debatable, but as long as there are people willingly to do it and the will of the person is respected, it's fine. Just don't force me to agree with the ethics of assisted suicide, you can do as you please.

Yup, it's the same.

What exactly about the ethics of the issue do you not agree with?

Well I'm assuming assisted suicide implies someone unplugging, therefore taking a life in a cause-effect relationship of another human being. I wouldn't be comfortable do it, specially if it was a relative of mine. But if some people are fine doing it, it's ok. We should always respect the person's opinion on the matter.

From a legal perspective it matches the description of murder, even though it's not the same. Where I live it is still illegal.

And I think euthanasia shouldn't depend only on the law, each case should go to court and the decision of the court would be yes or no. I say this because in some cases we don't know if the person would consent or not, if they are in a comma for instance.

Well of course but the same could be said about selling cigarettes. I'm not talking about selling, but using per se, the act of consumption shouldn't be punishable. Here it is not punishable but it may be illegal on public space. Even hard drugs are not, even though jail time for trafficking those is higher.

The same is said for cigarettes. It is illegal to sell cigarettes to minors.
Aside from that the sale, purchase, and use of cigarettes is legal.
The same should be said for all drugs. IMO

Well if you think that about seatbelts you should support driving a motorbike without helmet and practicing sports without required protection. I don't think it should be legal, some people are too stupid to wear a seatbelt unless the law forces them, it may sound harsh and against freedom, but it's just a way of protecting people, some people hurt themselves unwillingly because of irresponsibility, this kind o irresponsibility can be controlled by the law.

Hard drugs shouldn't be, they cause to much addiction, the State would just be wasting human resources (I assume you're talking about the sale).

As a smoker I can tell you 90% of stores sell cigs to minors, nowadays a 14 year old sometimes looks like 18 . It's difficult to keep asking for ID to everyone. A
