Would you push the button movie#
Movie coming out called 'The Box' where if you push a button you get a million bucks but someone in. Think of all the people struggling with the worst case of depression all the parents that today lost their son people living with uncurable severe chronic pain all the kids starving to an inevitable death right now.

If a railroad worker was dumb enough to get himself stuck in a railroad track I’m not going to cause an innocent kid to die in his place. There's a button you can push that will instantly and painlessly end all human life on earth, yours included.
