[quote:Useless Cookie Eater:MV8zNjk2ODQ4XzY2MDg4OTExXzJCNkQ1QzQy] [quote:Anonymous Coward 75868565:MV8zNjk2ODQ4X0Q4Q0NGOEUx] I'm only in my 40s, but already, I don't see much point or much to look forward to in hanging around another 20 or 30 years, growing older and watching myself, my capabilities, and my life opportunities decay with each passing year. I think it would be more merciful and reasonable if the average human took a dirt nap at age 50 or so. Just because our modern way of life has enabled us to live to 70 and far beyond..is it necessarily a good and desirable thing? I hope euthanasia is legal and readily available in the future. It should be a basic human right in an era with 7.5 billion mostly unnecessary people, especially with so much widespread misery, and the ever-continuing depletion of resources.
