LETTER TO THE CHN

As a Pre-medical student I foresee a very grim future if the legalization of Euthanasia or PAS occurs. I feel not only would these procedures undermine the integrity of the medical profession but sadly create the likely hood of becoming a means of health-care containment. I feel many are uninformed or swayed by opinions of what they feel should be their rights. Moreover, I feel many are uniformed of the growing threat of our U.S. health care systems working to produce less money for their customer and generate more money into their corporation. As an organization what do you feel is necessary to educate the public on the larger issue concerned with the legalization of these procedures? As our U.S. society becomes more liberal and our health-care corporations begin to grow do you feel the gap between whether to legalize or not is becoming smaller in the sense becoming closer to legalization?

Sincerely,
Nicole Butchart
