Or we could let people die if they want to. Crazy, I know.

Even if assisted suicide becomes legal it will be a complex thing were you are evaluated a ton to confirm that you are in the right state of mind and have a valid reason to ask for it

I doubt most jumpers would pass the psych eval needed to qualify for assisted suicide, they would get instantly a severe depression diagnosis and put in a mental facility with constant watch

Ya know, in an ideal world

Not sure if you are sarcastic, since many people have this opinion, but in an ideal world people could just die without having to proof anything.

In an ideal world, no one would want to die

To be fair, I don't see the appeal of living.

Like, it can be fun and all, but it's going to end in like 50 years, so yeah in the great perspective, it's like sleeping for 5 more minutes, everyone seems to love it but it's just... Meaningless?

I'm not saying I want to die but I can't see the difference between dying today or 30 years after
