There is a lot of happiness in some quarters about the Supreme Court’s decision on doctor assisted suicide in Oregon. I wonder how long the rejoicing will last if applied to things like labor laws, environmental laws, and other laws that roll out from Washington with little regard for the individual states.
So do I think the people of Oregon passed a good law about doctor assisted suicide? Nope (although I may change my mind in a few years), but I think that’s their mistake to make. I sure do hope the legal reasoning get’s extended to other areas besides suicide.
