Because Republicans, Democrats and corporate government use pay to play tactics to do what they can to remove the rights of individuals whilst making a profit, especially in those conservative, religious states of America.
If you are following anything that is being proposed to dismantle Obamacare you would know what I am talking about.

The argument remains: Just because we may be overloaded with sensory input doesn't mean a non-sensory state is preferable.

Because euthanasia is often illegal, even for terminally ill patients.

Apparently they recently stopped receiving imports of euthanasia drugs and began manufacturing their own that were not as effective or lethal, which is why there was a recent case of a death row inmate asking to be shot in the face by a firing squad rather than take ineffective/inefficient paralysis drugs.

More like the medicine will paralyse you but it won't knock you unconscious so you'll be awake to experience the effects of the next drug which is going to stop your heart over a 10-15 minute period.
Euthanasia is a 3 step process with a paralysis drug, another tranquilizer and then a final one that has the lethality.

I died twice last month from fentanyl. I woke up both times not knowing what happened. These weren't the only times. Death is nothing to fear because you wont even know it. It is like going to sleep and not being aware you never woke up. Your vision may awash with white light like water diffusing through a dry paper towel prior to going out. I never seen tunnels or anything.
Absolute nothingness!! It can be meditative and educational when you survive it.

Only people who believe the brain generates consciousness fear death. If you don't believe this then death is just change.

I fear a painful change but not an inevitable change, I try not to let things I can't control influence my mood.

I don't want to die or die painfully. I would like to see life change though.

Death, or the thought of death, is one of my best friends. Not so that I long for it, but the awareness of it makes me appreciate being alive and existing (also keeping the struggles and pains of existence in consideration), knowing it is all forever changing and more importantly; temporary.
Also, death isn't as bad as many people see it. Once it is there you will not be aware of anything.

Fucking great first post man! Your feelings match my own exactly.

And people that believe that the brain doesn't generate consciousness are generally using this philosophical precept to deny their animal reality, such a state of denial precludes fear, so yes you are correct. Congratulations

Many people choose to remember their mortality, as it can be very helpful.

Fuckin' A it can be. Once mastered, what an immensely powerful ally it is.
