Euthanasia Should be Legalized

Con: If you read my previous argument you would know what terminally meant. It means that you are sick for the rest of their life, there is no cure for it. How are doctors suppose treat a patient if there is not way to? How are these people suppose to "Combat death" like you said, if there is no cure? Do you think its better for them to be a vegetable for the rest of their life's, what would be the meaning of life then?You also quote" They are the one who combat death and improve the quality of health of a person". Yet again my point is right, they canot combat a disease or ilness if it is terminal. Euthanasia has already been legailzed in poor countries, and in the state of Orgeon. Doctors have taken a oath, that your right on. "To better the lifes of the patients" so if they are terminally ill, doctors should let them suffer? let them lay there and watch their life pass away? Like I said before, people have a choice on this earth. nobody should force them to suffer, if the patient would rather go to sleep peacefully. "The basic reason why euthanasia should be practiced is because it stops the person from having a bad quality of life. As I have said, a doctor’s function should not only be the one of curing diseases but also providing the patients a better quality of life. Having a patient suffering is not giving him a better quality of life. When doctors reach this point, then they should be allowed to grant the patient whatever he wants since he or she cannot offer something better. Even if they could offer the patient any kind of treatment or options, it is the patient who should decide how he wants to live his life. We pay the doctor so he can do the best he can. Helping us in having a better quality of life is about giving the patient what’s best for him as long as he wants it. The kind of quality of life is defined by the patient, not the doctor or government. Consequently, when the patient feels he is not getting the quality of life he wants, the least a doctor can do is grant him what he wants. If the patient’s decision is to die, so be it."

Now that I have turned down your "Reasonings" here are just a few more reasons why we should leagailize it. 1) Some rules are better than none: Since euthanasia will take place, even though it is illegal it would surely be better to make it legal and regulate it so as to minimize abuse instead of not having any rules at all. Patients might be better protected if there were set procedures and rules that had to be followed for euthanasia that are at present. A patient who feared that they were under pressure to decide in favour of euthanasia would be able to gain help and support by initiating the formal procedure involved in regulated euthanasia - something that they cannot do not. 2) Human beings have the right to die how and when they want to: Many people think that each person has the right to control is or her body and life and so should be able to determine at what time, in what way and by whose hand he or she will die. Behind this lies the idea that human beings should be as free as possible - and that innecessary restraints on human rights are a bad thing. And behind that lies the idea that human beings are independent biological entities with the right to take and carry out decisions about themselves, providing the greater good of society doesnt prohibit this. Allie to this is a firm belief that death is the end. 3) Euthanasia may be necessary for the fair distribution of health resources: This argument has not been put forward publicly or seriously by any goverment or health authority. It is included here for completeness. In most countries there is a shortage of health resources. As a result, some people who are ill and could be cured are not able to get speedy access to the facilities they need for the treatment. At the same time health resources are being used on people who cannot be cured, and who, for their own reasons, would prefer not to continue living. Allowing such people to commit euthanansia would not only let them have what they want, it would free valuable resources to treat people who want to live. Abuse of this would be prevented by only allowing the person who wanted to die the intitiate the process and by regulations that rigorously prevented abuse.
