Because if your body can no longer be used to make money for rich people through your labor, the government is pretty much okay with you being dead as you are less of a tax burden.
Only the pharmecutical industry is against this because people dying early cuts into their profits of shoving meds down their clients throats that treat symptoms but don’t cure them endlessly.
Everyone else is pretty much happy to see anyone who can no longer be bled dry being ground to dust.
While all of that is true, it ignores the simple fact that we provide more dignity to our pets than to other humans when it comes to terminal illness. Pets? Euthanasia is considered humane if the animal is suffering and can’t be helped. Humans? Hah, fuck you. Suffer until you die.
Palliative care helps to alleviate suffering. It doesn’t get rid of it entirely. And I’m largely talking about people here who can’t do it on their own at this point.

Well animals deserve it. They’re perfect. Humans by and large fucking suck.
Palliative care is a thing though. You don’t have to suffer, but they also won’t off you, you have to do that on your own.

This guy fucking gets it.
