Assisted suicide


Is the right to live also the right to die?

I was asked why I haven't said anything about the Oregon assisted suicide law now before the United States Supreme Court.

This is going to be the only time I talk about this topic.

As a libertarian, I believe in self-ownership. If you can't choose to end your life when and where you choose no matter what the circumstances, you don't really own it. Most people find reasons to live, not reasons to die. But it comes down to forcing a life choice on another.

Now, with that being said, I'll freely admit I have a huge conflict of interest.

And I will leave it at that.
