The problem is the possibility that physician assisted suicide will be abused to clear out people who are costly to treat by gently urging them to take the option, or other similar scenarios like a family urging someone to take the option so they can get early inheritance.

It's one of those things that I might support in idealistic principle but where I develop serious reservations when I factor in how ugly people can be in real life.

Then perhaps we should ban inheritance. It seemed unfair anyway.
