- drdaeman 7mo agoI understand the rationale, but don’t you see how this idea contradicts autonomy of decisions for able-minded people? Such good intentions tend to be a pavement on roads to bad places. I’d rather suggest to inform about all the potential benefits and drawbacks, but leave decisions with the individual. Especially given that it’s not something irreversibly permanent.
- walt_grata 7mo agoI'd agree but we're closer to getting forced into the chair than making a decision that's right for us
