Eventually we all die, it's just about time and methods, I think everybody has right to live, and die, to die in dignity, nobody deserves to die in unbearable pain and dirty pants, most of time it's cruelty if you don't allow some people to let go, don't you think? life is your own, not other people's, If i'm diagnosed with cancer, I'll definitely choose euthanasia, death can't be avoided and prolonged.

If the person decides while in their right mind and there is no hope of a cure then it should be legal. My father and sister both died of cancer and there was no hope for either. I think they should have been able to end it. Instead they both suffered extreme pain and it was unnecessary.

Everyone has the right and ability to take their own life. It's called suicide, and it carries with it the responsibility of making this decision on ones own. I believe one can be mislead toward an answer they wouldn't naturally have arrived at if it was prepackaged, advertised, and popularized. I am not saying there aren't exceptions, I only note the possible repercussions of the acceptance of the act

If euthanasia is legalized, it will become political/economical. For example, family members may encourage someone to get euthanized so they can get their inheritance. A doctor may encourage someone who he doesn't like treating to get euthanized if they are straining his time. Suicide is already an option, but there is a difference between killing yourself and killing someone else.

YES. The government must not interfere into a person's individual decisions.
