The cost of assisted suicide.

Although this article is dated 1999, I believe Oregon still has legalized assisted suicide. I'm not sure if Medicare covers it, but it's interesting to see the cost benefit analysis, as well as where they make the cutoff on what diseases are NOT covered to make up for covering assisted suicide. And while the death penalty costs the state money, every state, assisted suicide is cheaper than a lot of other diseases' treatments.
