In this interview, we discuss Yuill's argument against the legalization of assisted suicide. First, he believes we have a misconception of the dying process that overexaggerates the suffering that most people fear. Second, he believes legalization will pressure people to end their own lives in order to avoid being a burden on others. And third, he believes that we ought to prevent people from dying when we can because, except in extreme situations, we should assume that being alive is a good thing.
