Good question. I think I would choose to stay wherever I was, even if it was ultimately just plain dead, than re-live another life. Life is a fragile thing and that fragility gives it meaning. If we can be born over and over repeatedly, it would wear thin and not be worthwhile.
Here's another thought - If we were capable of re-birth, who would hold that power in their hands? Wouldn't that automatically make us ultimately subservient to another person or institution? The value of life to the person in need of the service would be extremely high, while the value of that life to the institution doing the process would be pretty low. They would be extremely demanding on the new life and make it not worth living.
