New survey: Younger Canadians get behind euthanizing the poor and infirm

60% of respondents in the 18-34 age group said that a person with a disability should be able to request a state-administered suicide. By way of comparison, 46% of respondents in the 35-54 age group and 44% of those in the 55+ age group suggested that the disabled should be eligible for voluntary extermination.

41% of those in the 18-34 age group answered that homelessness was a good enough reason for state-assisted suicide. 29% of respondents in the 35-54 age group agreed that the homeless should be given a legal lethal way out by the Canadian government.

Zoomers and Millennials majoritively (55%) reportedly reckon mental illness is a justifiable reason for state-assisted suicide.

[The culture of death expands as it becomes more mainstream. This does not surprise me, even though it’s certainly depressing. Canada’s health care regime has been pushing for expanded euthanasia thanks to the economic incentives for it inherent in a single-payer system, and its cultural advance is only possible through the embrace of utilitarianism, especially in its first form in abortion. — Ed]
