    It just might if the GOP remains in control of all three branches of government.

    If the government would just stop forcing companies to improve labels that problem might take care of itself.  I told a couple who were smoking while pumping gasoline into their car to put out their cigarettes.  They had no idea why.  They are out there driving a car.  God save us!!

    The idea of a long, well-funded retirement is fairly recent.  Social Security and retirement plans weren't expected to pay for a 30 year vacation. Social Security was founded at a time when life expectancy was around 62 and you couldn't collect it until age 65.  Dying younger and working longer are both good ways to avoid living in poverty.

    Why state sponsored?

    I think it will be bought by Big Pharma and you will be able to get a dose of something through a drive-in window that will put you to rest at your own convenience.  So drive-through, go home, call creamatorium and have them pick you up afterwards.

    I like it.  This way Republicans can get behind it since they don't like government interference.
