What? Covid didn't work?

It's a major step up in robotics.

Amerika has a solution, too. Once you reach a point where government/insurance companies decide you are no longer worth the cost/effort, you're allowed to die a natural death. Yay...

canada encourages euthanasia at any age. In canada it doesn't matter if you're terminally ill. If you want to off yourself, the government is okay with that.
In china if they want your internal organs they take them. The Uighur donor has no say in the matter. Yikes!

The part about being terminally ill isn’t exactly true, to be eligible in Canada for euthanasia. You have to have a grievous and non-medically curable condition.

Like not wanting to eat? Being "depressed"?

I'm going to see my primary care doctor for the first time in two years, and I'm going to tell him "It appears that the 'Health Care System" in the U.S. has become a mechanism for population control." (he is an excellent doctor, and I'm sure he agrees, whether he will admit it or not) EXAMPLE:

If you are a drug addict who takes drugs for the fun of it (which they now refer to as someone with "substance use disorder"... like you use too much salt and pepper or something), they will give you enough pain medication to kill yourself, due to your "special needs", and you will be viewed as a "hero" due to your "struggles" with your "condition".

But if you have an objectively-verifiable need for pain medication, due to an injury or condition that is known to cause debilitating pain... pain which can eventually kill you, even if indirectly... you will be denied the medication you need, and otherwise be treated with disdain... like you are a drug addict or something.

Note the final outcome in both instances, and note that this dovetails nicely with the policies of treating criminals like victims, and victims like criminals.

Ya know, probably an unpopular opinion, but I have no problem with the concept of euthanasia. My main hesitation stems from my belief that our government would take it away from the sheeple, generally f@#$ it up, drive the cost up, and eventually weaponize it. Hence the DIY solutions we're accustomed to...

If anybody can't see that it was created purposely they need a mental evaluation.

I just don’t understand why it’s so easy to euthanize someone yet damn near impossible to execute a murderer.

Because criminals run the show and they have to watch out for their fellow criminals!

I just read where Rite-Aid is declaring bankruptcy mainly because of the opioid lawsuits. If you or a loved one is in chronic pain and must continually use opioids, you my be familiar with this scam. The lawsuits were nominally designed to stop the "pill mills" where shady clinics would prescribe opiates knowing that they would be sold illegally. The prescribing clinicians got kickbacks or cash payments. The PRACTICAL result however was another bureaucracy of bean counters and Byzantine "guidelines" for prescribing and filling opiate prescriptions. This resulted in major pharmacy chains LYING to people who were legitimately in intractable pain, just so they wouldn't go over some arbitrary quota for dispensing opiates. With the news from Rite-Aid, I'd also guess that a secondary purpose of the lawsuits was to continually squeeze the "little fish" (mom and pop and smaller pharmacies) out of business, allowing the huge national pharmacies to take over the market. Why? Corporatism. Fewer companies are easier to control. Now what nefarious things might a virtually-government-controlled pharma industry perpetrate? Use your imaginations.

And note how this all is a mirror-image of their "solutions" to "gun crime"... exactly the same playbook applied in a different arena, and BOTH have counter-productive outcomes... for the law-abiding, non-drug addicted Citizen, at least.
