The story of Soylent Green is not just about mass cannibalism being hidden from the public but the way the older generations decide to voluntarily end their lives by going to what is called a Thanatorium. It literally was an assisted suicide center. No one dreamed that less than 40 years after the dystopian cinematic classic was released, assisted suicide clinics, exactly like the one depicted in the movie, would legally operate in Switzerland and service hundreds of people from around the world. The controversial SARCO suicide capsule looks like a compact spaceship that you get into, press a button, nitrogen fills up and you fall asleep and die. Is this a humane way to assist those who wish to depart peacefully from this physical realm or will it be used as a depopulation tool? Tonight on Ground Zero (7-10 pm, pacific time) Clyde Lewis talks with Paula Swope about THANATORIUM – FLYING THE SUICIDE SAUCER.
