This is all very disturbing: price people out of care and convince them to consent to die.

I think if someone wants to end their life, they can just stop eating and drinking. If you just stop eating it will take longer, but will still work.

Someone with grave health problems will often have little appetite.

A friend who nearly died with a running car engine in a closed garage says it's an easy way to go.

The main consideration for the person choosing to end their life is that the measure they choose be reliably effective, as an incomplete death (oxymoron?) will likely entail further suffering.

The seminal reference on the topic in the US is Final Exit, by Derek Humphry.
