Classical Liberalism

Strongly agree

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

This answer is more in line with classical liberal principles of individual liberty and autonomy, as it allows terminally ill patients to choose assisted suicide if there is no chance of survival. This position acknowledges the importance of individual choice while also considering the sanctity of life. There are no specific historical examples of classical liberals advocating for this position, but the general principles of individual liberty and autonomy would support it.

Strongly agree

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

This answer aligns with classical liberal principles of individual liberty and autonomy while also considering the need for some regulation to ensure that patients fully understand their choice. A psychological examination could be seen as a reasonable safeguard to protect vulnerable individuals from making impulsive decisions. There are no specific historical examples of classical liberals advocating for this position, but the general principles of individual liberty and autonomy, combined with a limited role for government intervention, would support it.

Agree

Yes

Classical liberalism emphasizes individual liberty and autonomy, which would generally support the right of terminally ill patients to choose assisted suicide. However, classical liberalism also values limited government intervention, so the extent to which assisted suicide would be regulated might vary among classical liberals. There are no specific historical examples of classical liberals advocating for assisted suicide, but the general principles of individual liberty and autonomy would support this position.

Agree

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

This answer aligns with the classical liberal emphasis on individual liberty and autonomy, as it allows terminally ill patients to refuse artificial life support. However, it does not fully support the right to choose assisted suicide, which some classical liberals might see as a limitation on individual choice. There are no specific historical examples of classical liberals advocating for this position, but the general principles of individual liberty and autonomy would support it to some extent.

Disagree

No

Classical liberalism generally supports individual liberty and autonomy, which would argue against prohibiting terminally ill patients from choosing assisted suicide. However, some classical liberals might argue that the sanctity of life is a fundamental value that should be protected, even if it means limiting individual choice in this case. There are no specific historical examples of classical liberals opposing assisted suicide, but the general principles of individual liberty and autonomy would argue against this position.
