    The only reason I can see to be against this is because of religion, as long as safeguards are put in place it should be a non issue. Switzerland has been doing it since 1942

      The nub of the matter is that the decision will rest with people who are frequently vulnerable and is guaranteed to attract coercion.

      Not only religion. Euthanasia is a very controversial thing in all ways. For example, a person with a terminal disease can decide to do it because of despair and in many countries courts will consider such decision illegitimate but the person would already be dead so it’s a very complicated situation.
