 In the article "Canada could start killing off the sick to 'save money,' warns bishop," the author writes - "Assisted suicide puts the poor at risk. Without those financial resources, the poor are the most at risk. Suicide becomes the cheap alternative for the poor who cannot afford treatment or medication. By passing assisted suicide laws, the state takes an interest in promoting the suicide of its citizens in order to save money. In fact, many insurance companies favor and push assisted suicide because it saves them money." In countries where assisted suicide has been legalized, the "slippery slope" toward redefining who can approve it and under which circumstances has taken place. At first, it's with the approval of a board of doctors when the patient consents and there is no reasonable chance of avoiding an imminent death. Then it changes to next-of-kin approval, then when the patient or next-of-kin say the subject is having too much pain, then when the subject is psychologically depressed, etc., etc. Now in some countries one doctor can give the go-ahead to kill an elderly or disabled patient for almost any flimsy reason. We have gone over the edge of the "slippery slope" to the point that some U.S. insurance companies will not pay for life-saving treatments but will pay for an assisted suicide "poison pill." We may soon reach the stage where the government can mandate the "poison pill" or psychoactive drug treatment to terminate or neutralize its political enemies as well as those it deems too expensive to keep alive... just like in the USSR or Nazi Germany.
