My cat is set to be put down today at three in the afternoon.

It is strange to me that humans can’t just go somewhere to be put down if they can’t find a job.  We see the unemployed being put down against their will in the T4 program Hitler started.  But in most other cases people are forced to live without a job, even if they don’t want to.  The ending of one’s life is out of one’s own hands either way.
