More like legalized murder.

Also turns to Hippocratic Oath into the Hypocritical Oath


"First, do no harm" has never been an absolutism. Virtually every medical treatment involves inflicting some sort of harm on the body, with ethical practice demanding that the benefit outweigh that harm. Here, the choice is between helping somebody who - in sound mind - wants to die to achieve that end, or continuing to pour resources into saving the life of somebody who doesn't want to be saved. There's a pretty solid case to be made for calling assisted suicide the best harm/benefit trade-off.
