Question 34 (Mandatory) 0 / 2 points

InGonzales v. Oregon, US Attorney General Gonzales is trying to stop Oregon from permitting doctor-assisted suicide. Which of the following statements correctly explains why one side promotes the concept ofpersonal liberty?

Question options:

Personal liberty does not apply to this case, because the US government is not causing doctors or patients to suffer "arbitrary imprisonments."

Gonzales promotes, because this would permit him to commit suicide and not be constrained "in matters of mere indifference."

Oregon promotes personal liberty because this would permit a sick patient to act "as [he] thinks fit, without any restraint or control, unless by the law of nature."

Both Gonzales and Oregon promote personal liberty because "the Oregon Death With Dignity Act (ODWDA) exempts from civil or criminal liability state-licensed physicians who ... dispense or prescribe a lethal dose of drugs upon the request of a terminally ill patient."
