Government Should T Have Total Control Over Your Life

Superior Essays
My thoughts on this issue came from internet and my own beliefs. Because government shouldn’t have total control over your life. Also it’s not affecting anyone else if they’re doing it for their own good. Also the government shouldn 't say it shouldn 't be allowed because that could be government supporting christianity and their beliefs about suicides. I rank myself as a liberal on this topic, because most democrats think we should have the euthanasia procedure. Another issue we should talk about more is wind power/ alternative energy producers. We had a big convention in France with other countries about pollution and what we could do to cut back in causing smog and other terrible pollution things. Because all we are doing is shortening our lives on earth, and pollution has been proven to cut back years on your life expectancy, because China has caused so much pollution they lost 1-2 years in life expectancy. Personally I don’t think this is going to do anything so we should look towards our own country and do what 's best for us. So i think we should extend research on building wind turbines and other greenhouse power conductors, so we can make these energy producers produce more energy, and find a way to store the …show more content…
Because if we had to cut back on military expenses we would have to get rid of some stuff, and give it to people that might in the future turn their backs on us or such. In military expenses we should increase the amount of money soldiers make a year, and also put more money towards special force training of the elite soldiers. We also shouldn’t send troops to other countries over little things like a few Americans getting their heads cut off, we should only think about going to fight against other countries if it effects us a whole lot or one of our good allies a whole

    1. What is the military Industrial Complex? The Military Industrial Complex term emerged officially during president Dwight D. Eisenhower farewell address when he referred to the relationship among the armament industry, the US army and the US Congress. These political and monetary relationship have evolved through the years and some Analysts believe that the Military Industrial terminology started when the government needed the private industry’s help to build steam ships during the civil war and it became stronger after the WWII due to the necessity of private capital for the development of technology to build sophisticated armaments to strength military force for the country’s defense in order to keep power and world leadership.…

    I. Physician-assisted suicide, under various names and colloquial definitions, has been a documented ethical issue for centuries – not to mention an undocumented ethical issue since the hypothetical dawn of life. By common understanding, physician-assisted suicide is death either directly or indirectly permitted or carried out by a physician. In simple terms, an “out” is provided. For this reason, it is often associated with chronic pain or terminal illness. Suicide where the doctor in charge is directly involved is perhaps the first situation which comes to mind when one thinks of euthanasia.…

    Physician assisted suicide is already legal in one state, and there are seven other states that imply a death with dignity statute. According to the New England Journal of Medicine, more than 4,000 doctors across the United States have approved of the assisted suicide law ("The Right to Die”). (“Death with Dignity Around the U.S.”). The law allows terminally ill patients who have been given six months or less to live and wish to hasten their deaths to obtain medication prescribed by two doctors. The most important thing to notice is that this law does not include those who have been on a life support system nor does it include those who have not voluntarily asked physicians to help them commit suicide.…

    One of the most widely debated ethical issues throughout the country is the right to die with the assistance of physicians. Out of the fifty states in the United States, only five states have legalized physician-assisted suicide. There are specific requirements that allow an individual to possess this right. The question still stands as to whether or not the right to die is morally right or morally wrong. Oregon, Vermont, California, and Washington are four out of the five states that have mandated state laws regarding physician-assisted suicide.…

    People have the right to make "important decisions about their lives for themselves according to their own values or conceptions of a good life, and in being left free to act on these decisions" (Brock 227). This allows people to take responsibility over their own lives as long as the person can make decisions. “For many patients near death, maintaining the quality of one’s life, avoiding great suffering, maintaining one’s dignity, and insuring that others remember us as we wish them to become of paramount importance and outweigh merely extending one’s life” (Brock 227. Life is about quality rather than quantity. Euthanasia is highly subjective; therefore, if it was legalized, then the law should not be very specific about the type of situation that euthanasia is permitted for a patient.…

    Euthanasia, also known as doctor assisted suicide, and whether or not if it should be legalized is a very controversial. Euthanasia essentially is permission for doctors to end the lives of terminally ill people to end that pain. It being a very debatable topic some may argue that if there is no positive signs in sight then rather the patient suffer; end it. On the other hand is is arguable that life is valuable so live it through completely, and doctors being given the option of ending live devalues life. Personally, I believe under the right circumstances euthanasia is acceptable, especially if the victim of the suffering is asking to put an end to it as well.…

    Much of the opposition cites their religious beliefs, saying suicide in general is immoral. Christian Apologetics & Research Ministry states, “We are made in the image of God (Gen. 1:26), and it is the Lord God who gives us life (Job 33:4) and who has numbered our days (Job 14:5). This means that God is the sovereign Lord who determines the day that we die. Therefore, we are not to usurp God 's authority” (Slick). The same people present the fifth commandment, “Thou shall not kill,” as evidence of the immorality of assisted…

    Assisted suicide is one of the most controversial debates by physicians around the world. It is also one of the most controversial topics for any religious groups. Most religious groups such as christians and the muslims believe killing yourself is shameful and would be punished in the afterlife. As for the mormons and the jews they believe that if you would choose assisted suicide as long as its peaceful manner then it's okay.

    There are a few valid points on disagreeing with assisted suicide such as the sanctity of life and receiving high-quality palliative care that make the topic argumentative. Death with Dignity should be legalized in more states to help those who are suffering, those who can no longer go on with the terminal illness they are fighting, and to end their long lasting hospital bills. Many patients who seek this should not have to change residences, especially since it causes more out-of-pocket…

    Euthanasia to be a controversial problem because there seem to be no grey area, no concrete right or wrong and continues to be a highly debatable topic. I believe the Death with Dignity laws is effective in the states that have it and should be become a law in all states. Death with Dignity laws enables and insure the rights of terminally ill patients to hasten their death. I also believe the law is effective because it gives terminally ill patients a choice. Perhaps many of these patients do not want to burden family members with their declining health, suffering and agony.…

    Physician assisted suicide, P.A.S, has been a topic of interest for many years and the argument still stands on whether or not it should be legalized entirely in the United States.

The state of Oregon passed a Death with Dignity Act in 1996, and was the first state to make Physician assisted suicide legal.

    People who are against euthanasia think that these laws against euthanasia are in place to prevent abuse and to protect people from unscrupulous doctors and others. They are not, and never have been, intended to make anyone suffer. In the other hand, supporters for active euthanasia believe that legislation against it is “violative of the fundamental concepts of liberty, freedom of choice, and self determination.” They base these beliefs on the content of the “Fourteenth Amendment” to the United States Constitution. The voluntary choice between life and death is to them, a basic human right which government has no right to decide (http://www.apa.org/pi/eol/arguments).…

    Euthanasia should be legalized as a choice for the patient to be able to make. If euthanasia is even an option for the patient, then they are already at great risk of dying within the next six months or even less and no one wants to have to suffer for that long and still have to know that any day could be their last,…
