Dr Paul Longmore, a historian and scholar of disability sickness, was reported in the Los Angeles Daily News on 20 January 2006:
“Although they say they wouldn’t want to be kept alive by heroic means, when it comes down to it people want a lot more end-of-life care then the corporate managers and health care policymakers want them to have. Acceptance of the new culture of dying, which includes embrace of both public care policies and assisted suicide, has not proceeded as smoothly or rapidly as the reformers hoped.”
reported on 14 March 2006: “According to CBS, “Public support for physician-assisted suicide (46%) is now at the lowest point since the CBS News/New York Times poll began asking that question in 1990”.
