Discussion Free suicide pill + basic income = ZOOM!

Imagine if no one had to do stuff they didn't want to do just to have a place to live, food, clothes, etc., AND suicide was acceptable and made readily available to everyone via an instant and painless kill-pill.

I think humanity would just take off into the stratosphere and head straight for the stars!

Everybody could turn all their powers toward self-expression and self-actualization.

It would be phenomenal.

I would LOVE to be able to flip a switch and it be over. I think the dim light of my brain was switched off years ago … now I need my body to switch off.

Well I think I meet those criteria.

I earn my money without even having to leave my house. I don't do things I don't want to do.
I have my pill, not instant but good enough.
I withdrew from society but I still live near a city. My next step is to find a little house/cabin in an isolated area.

It doesn't change much for me since I'm past all that, never really been interested by anything so...
But at least I don't have to suffer people anymore, I don't have to listen to stupid colleagues every morning talking about football or kids or their last holidays.

Just for that I'm glad I made that decision, at least I can have some peace before I die.

What type of Pill do you have?

 

[snowman626]

That would be my dream come true.

 

[Wayfaerer]

I don't know if it's really practical or not but if UBI were a thing right now, I'd definitely post-pone my bus catching by a year or two at least.

I would love to be able to flip a switch and it be over. but it's not being that easy.
