But that's likely me basing that on what I assumed euthanasia was to be defined as. I thought voluntarily doing so was simply suicide, but I see I was incorrect.
I don't like any sounds of "euthanasia" and adding ANY incentive for a doctor is insanity.... who knows what people are capable of for a measly $1k
On the other hand, if someone has a terminal illness, and is found to be of sound mind, and would rather die at a certain time than suffer and die later... then I would never judge such a person.
