 It is legal in NZ.  Parliament voted 61-59 (barely in favor) requiring a referendum, and the people voted 65.1% in favor

Most of the organisations against euthnasia were(are) either Christian or hospice businesses (who would lose customers).

48.6% of New Zealanders have "no religion".

 obviously legal in Canada too ( doctors push people to do it there ).  but Canada is too cold and NZ is too far.

pretty much only rights i care about is right to bear arms to defend myself.  and right to kill myself.  that is rights to live and rights to die.  amazing how these are controversial, yet Liberals don't believe in right to self defense and Conservatives don't believe in right to die.

the 2 party system basically took the most idiotic positions and randomly assigned them either to liberals or conservatives and then said " fight ! "

they replaced philosophy with a chicken fight ...

ps: i know you don't care about US politics but i suspect it is similar in other places ...

 When it is time to die, move to Canada.  You don't have to live there the whole time.
