I support the right to die, especially in a society like America. If you have the right to waste your life and give nothing to society (and in America, you do have that right) then you should also have the right to terminate your own life, as you aren't taking anything from anyone else (in the general, societal sense) by doing so.
Many people say that its not OK for people to terminate themselves because of how they affect their families, but thats a faulty argument. By that standard, why dont' we make people get their family's approval before switching jobs, going on a trip, moving, or any other action that could cause serious unrest.
Personally, if I was in a permanent vegatative state or other similar condition of mental impairment, while I could never pull the plug on myself, I would certainly be relieved if someone pulled it for me.
