Do you believe that everyone should have the right to die, regardless of their physical health?

What do you mean by 'right to die'? What entity would impart such a right unto people and what benefit do they derive from people having casual access to his right?

What do you mean by 'right to die'

The right to take your own life without expecting intervention from anyone, and being institutionalized in case of a failed attempt or solely for expressing the desire to die

What entity would impart such a right unto people and what benefit do they derive from people having casual access to his right?

Idfk lol

Then you should reflect on the questions you didn't think to ask and consider their broader implications. There has to be a defined benefit for the individual who wished to end their life as well as a benefit to any entity that has the physical means to prevent this or punish others for enabling such acts. There also needs to be a consideration for the fact that there will be people who game such rules to murder people who otherwise didn't want to die for reasons of their own benefit.
