    "Suicide is tragic and awful — unless you get a doctor to prescribe poison, in which case it becomes a right necessary for 'progressive' society? And, chillingly, when does the 'right to die' become the 'duty to die,' and then coerced death? In Belgium, the slippery slope has led to euthanasia for children, and death has become the default medical treatment for a host of non-terminal illnesses, including depression. Is this what we want here?"

    IOW if you go to a shrink because you are depressed he may legally murder you.

    For a state that protects the jobs of high school dropouts who pump gas by making self-serve stations illegal, protecting doctor's pay for suicide seems par for the course.

    New Jersey has something called a death tax. Perhaps the Governor wants to collet them a tad early.

    Maine is a governor's signature away from doing the same. A signature by a governor who has already signed (or will sign) legislation forcing insurance companies to cover abortions (for those on Medicaid), and allowing some non-MDs to perform abortions.
