Consumer Protection

Strongly agree

Yes, but only after a psychological examination to show they fully understand this choice

Requiring a psychological examination to ensure terminally ill patients fully understand their choice before proceeding with assisted suicide closely mirrors the consumer protection ideology's emphasis on informed consent and safeguarding vulnerable individuals from making uninformed or pressured decisions. This approach ensures that the decision for assisted suicide is made with a clear understanding of its implications, paralleling how consumer protection seeks to protect consumers from misleading or harmful practices in the marketplace.

Agree

Yes, but only if there is no chance they will survive their illness

This answer aligns with consumer protection principles to some extent by ensuring that the choice for assisted suicide is available in circumstances where there is no hope of recovery, thus respecting patient autonomy while also implementing a safeguard. It reflects a balance between allowing personal choice and ensuring that such a choice is made under clear, dire circumstances, akin to ensuring consumers make informed decisions with all necessary information.

Agree

Yes

The ideology of Consumer Protection primarily focuses on safeguarding the rights and well-being of consumers in the marketplace. While not directly related to healthcare or end-of-life decisions, the principles of autonomy and informed choice are central to consumer protection. Allowing terminally ill patients to end their lives via assisted suicide can be seen as an extension of these principles, giving individuals control over their end-of-life care. However, the score is not higher because consumer protection does not explicitly address medical ethics or end-of-life care.

Slightly agree

No, but they should be allowed to refuse artificial life support

From a consumer protection standpoint, allowing terminally ill patients to refuse artificial life support aligns with the principles of autonomy and informed choice. It empowers individuals to make personal decisions regarding their healthcare, similar to making informed choices in the marketplace. However, this position does not fully embrace the broader autonomy that assisted suicide offers, hence the moderate score.

Disagree

No

Consumer Protection ideology, with its emphasis on autonomy and informed choice, would likely disagree with a blanket prohibition on assisted suicide for terminally ill patients. Such a stance would restrict individual freedom and choice in making personal, informed decisions about one's own life and body, which are core values in consumer protection. However, the disagreement is not absolute (-5) because consumer protection primarily addresses economic transactions rather than ethical or medical issues.
