Assisted suicide a 20^th century problem, Palliative care a 21^st century solution

Assisted suicide and euthanasia are two forms of what is being called 'assisted dying', and they are touted by proponents as "progressive" and "compassionate". In fact, they are, on the contrary, relics from the last century: today, in the 21^st century, we have moved beyond such archaic solutions - we now have, instead, proper evidence-based palliative care. It is this that should be demanded for all. This article will dispel the myths around dying that are often cited. It will also explore the oft-overlooked tragedies generated by assisted suicide, in the hope you, the reader, can be better informed about this retrogressive practice.
