Preventing the slide down the slippery slope from assisted suicide to euthanasia while protecting the rights of people with disabilities who are "not dead yet."
Article
Since at least the advent of Jack Kevorkian's "suicide machine" the major argument against adopting physician-assisted suicide laws has been that they will lead us down a slippery slope to state-sanctioned killing by physicians (usually termed "euthanasia") (Kevorkian, 1991). In the United States the legal line between physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia has not been breached in any of the 10 states that have adopted "Medical Aid in Dying" (also termed "physician-assisted suicide") laws.
