"The Netherlands has government funded healthcare, correct?"

I'm reasonably certain it does.

And therein lies the problem. When the feeble and the old become a burden to the state, the "Right to Die" will quickly morph into the "Duty to Die". People who do not opt for euthanasia will be seen as greedy and irresponsible.

In twenty years, the person who consumes a half Million dollars worth of medical care at the end of life will be as derided as the "Welfare Queen" of the 1980s.
