@Felthry Because the folks that most oppose it believe that they will have to pay for folks who, in their opinion, should just stop existing because they are a perpetual drain on society (ie, their wallets).

It's not a matter of helping others being a bad choice. It's a matter of those others not being seen as worthy of help, or even human in the first place.
