This is only the beginning. This type of mandate by legislation will only increase. The odd part is that governments are dependent on that tax from alcohol, tobacco etc. I simply see the tax rates rising to accommodate the drop in demand. Stock up now boys 😆

The argument goes, the healthier the people, the lower burden/load on the health sector = saving money in the long run. a win-win situation from government perspective.

Lol.

The numbers are that the big health care dollars (half or more) are spent on the last few months of life, whether those last few months are at age 60 or age 100.

Everyone could have perfect health up to those last few months--but without forced euthanasia for seniors the government health care costs will always be crazy high.

That is why forced euthanasia will be the end game here.
