Suicide partners found each other on the internet

Last week the UK news channels reported the suicide deaths of two people who had linked up via the internet. They had apparently swapped information about how to commit suicide and then met and died together in a car. This seems like an incredible use for the internet to most people - but what do YOU think about this? How do you feel when you hear a story like this hitting the headlines? Do you think that the internet should be more restricted when it comes to how people are now using it for activities which in the past would have seemed impossible not to mention taboo.

Death Tax

There is a lot of comment around today about the possibilities of the Labour party bringing in a Death Tax! Sounds pretty horrible, even if the details seem to be far from finalised.
What do you think?
Is a death tax the answer to the issues around care for the elderly and infirm in our society?
