Episode notes
Assisted Suicide and Devaluation of Life
- Assisted suicide, or MAID (Medical Assistance in Dying), is rising.
- Matt Walsh argues this reflects a broader societal shift towards devaluing human life.
UK Legalizes Assisted Suicide
- The UK recently legalized assisted suicide, a reversal from a 2015 vote.
- The bill allows terminally ill adults to end their lives under specific conditions.
