I do hate this, but at least dying is not an illegal thing to do to oneself, but at the same time, I don't want people to die, even if they decided to. On top of that, there has to be a better way to deal with addiction than allowing someone to just die. Plus, there is a stupid loophole brewing where people who decide not to die could be documented as wanting to die by some powerful individuals. All around, a bad thing to legalize and the administrative problems it would bring
- I don't want people to suffer even if they decided to. There's this stupid loophole where people are convicted of crimes they didn't do because the government is theatre.
  
  All around, people should maintain their own propriety.
