With rising costs of life care in stark contrast to that of medications, the increasing prevalence of euthanasia is becoming an issue that Washington needs to address. As a person's life is dramatically changed under unfortunate circumstances, euthanasia is becoming a topic that needs regulation from our government. Who really has the power to decide whether or not a person should live or die? How do we prevent euthanasia from becoming an act that doctors are carelessly using? These are all questions that we ask Washington to address through regulations and bringing attention to the topic of euthanasia and it's place in society as a whole.
