Currently most death with dignity laws require a sort of hearing where not only is the person themselves examined/evaluated but their doctors have to also testify that the person is suffering and that suffering can't be alleviated, and that the person is of sound enough mind to understand the decision they're making. People don't just walk into suicide booths like in Futurama and end it on a whim.
In fact that's exactly why death with dignity laws exist. So suicide is available with oversight to those who truly need it. Not wanting to raise you kids or your heirs wanting an inheritance would never, ever, ever pass an oversight board. Most (if not every single one) of your examples is completely absurd and shows your absolute ignorance.
If you don't know fuck all about a topic you know you can just not comment, right?
