GOVERNMENT APPROVED KILLERS
Wives have been known to kill their husbands. Husbands sometimes kill their wives. Having them around can be very inconvenient. Some nag and complain all the time. Some have health issues that really drag the family down financially and limit their ability to vacation or have more stuff to enjoy. Life insurance payouts are helpful in stress relief too. People can be very expensive.
Suppose we had a special government agency set up to oversee these murders. That way we could make sure that the spouse that was being killed would be killed efficiently and placed in biohazard containers for disposal. We could make sure the facility pays staff well and receives generous amounts of tax payer money. Legit facilities could advertise and market their services in high risk neighborhoods.
Some states could even provide for inspections to make sure the facility is equipped with medications and comfort measures for the spouse who has contracted the killing. Then we could regulate the process. It should take place near a hospital, so that if the person being killed somehow makes it out alive, they can access care. Or if per chance the person who contracted the murder were somehow hurt in the process, they could be taken care of.
Legislators could decide at what age it is legal to kill the spouse and if there would be any special education required prior to the completion of the contract. They could enact laws requiring any protestors or other concerned family to stay away from the facility as a buffer zone. We could have laws that state which type of murder is allowed at each facility. We could have laws pertaining to the body parts of the spouse that is killed and also, pertaining to any potential assets they might have.
In cases that don’t meet the right criteria, a spouse could get special judicial bypass to make sure that killing the unwanted spouse would be legal. With more regulations and restrictions, it might save some lives. Then again, if it were legal and regulated, it just might become more common.
This would make Spousal Murder much more acceptable. Don’t you agree?
