its not effing eugenics. None of this can be done without consent. Its a ridiculous argument. I surrender my fate to my wife if I am incapable of decision making and I am very happy she will not take some sort of twisted fringe political view to make her decisions about me. My god I can't believe you just said you would allow your loved ones to live torturous lives if the decision was yours.
I'm not a lawyer but I don't think substitute decision makers or advanced directives are legal for MAID. Only for withdrawal of life support.
It amounts to the same thing though. I was using it as an example because right now im relatively healthy and don't currently need the maid option but if I did I want that option.
