Instead of deep throating a shotgun people are getting an injection and going to sleep and never waking up. Get rid of MAID and there will just be more suicides by other means.

MAID isn’t the problem. People being trapped in our shit economy with no way out is the problem.

While I agree that MAID isn't the problem and is a good thing to have, suicides didn't drop significantly when it was introduced. It doesn't appear that these people were actually killing themselves on their own before and now replacing it through MAID.
