Simple. Life support costs thousands, even up to millions of dollars, all depending on how long someone is kept alive. Whereas if someone ends their life voluntarily the cost is very little, say a shot to the head, slit wrists, or even the potassium from an IV drip from a full day's course being injected instantly (which is a similar amount used in lethal injections), but then the family needs to pay for the funeral afterwards.

∙ 12y agoThere is an association called Dignitas (an association in accordance with Swiss law), situated in Switzerland. They assist people who travel to them (from all over the world). Dignitas, founded in 1998 at Forch (near Zurich), pursues no commercial interests. Their objective is to ensure a life and a death with dignity. For more information, see the page links, further down this page, listed under Sources and Related Links. The website information is provided in English, German, French and Italian. A brochure is also available from Dignitas. At this time, 2011, there is no equivalent help in North America or the UK; that situation may or may not change in the future.
