Contributing sentiments towards policy:

47% : That's the lesson of Europe's experience with assisted suicide and euthanasia, practices whose advocates are making quiet but expansive inroads in North America, as well.
45% : California activists are even trying to expand physician-assisted killing to people with dementia.
40% : You can start with seemingly ironclad safeguards, such as "six months to live" or "hopeless and unbearable suffering" -- but soon enough, legalizing physician-assisted suicide opens the door to killing children who are too young to consent, victims of sexual abuse and even those who are simply "tired of life."
40% : With this in mind, it is perhaps less surprising to discover that physical pain and suffering don't make the top five reasons people request physician-assisted killing in Oregon -- it's the loss of autonomy that is the No. 1 reason for such requests.
