We've legalized assisted suicide in many states now and it's an honorable way to go with ceremony and people planning everything in advance.
I disagree about people not wanting to live as long as possible. Yes, we have assisted suicide, but not very many people use it. In my state we have had that since 1997 and in that roughly 10 years there have only been about 1,000 people who have actually used it. 100 people per year is not very many.

On the contrary, my mom is 77 and lives in a retirement community. All the people there are at least 65 and most of them are taking tons of medication, seeing doctors all the time, and doing everything they can to hang on to life for as long as they can.
