Marijuana as Medicine ?
[ send me this paper ]
15 pages on the historic controversy over marijuana's usefulness & legalization. The writer goes into great detail about the drug's alleged medical value and elaborates what has been discovered thus far. It is concluded that after all the evidence, federal court rulings, and experiments, marijuana it seems, does indeed cloud the mind. But in this instance, 'the clouded minds are in government buildings,' as marijuana has indeed shown an outstanding level of usefulness for certain patients committed to hospital care.

Medical Marijuana
[ send me this paper ]
The thesis of this 10 page paper is that there is a medical necessity for the legal use of marijuana. There is significant evidence that supports the benefits of THC, a chemical found in marijuana, is beneficial for sufferers of cancer, AIDS and glaucoma. Though THC is available in tablet form, many seriously ill patients cannot take the oral medication, and many complain that the pill is ineffective. If the use of marijuana can significantly reduce the suffering of severely ill individuals, it is a civic and political necessity to promote legal use.

Ethics Of Euthanasia/Physician-Assisted Suicide
[ send me this paper ]
10 pages in length. The argument that has sent the world into a tailspin is whether or not people who are suffering from terminal or excruciatingly painful illnesses have the right to take their own lives with the help of physician-assisted suicide. Proponents contend that what one does with one's life is of no consequence to anyone else -- that it is both ethical and humane to allow someone to be relieved of constant discomfort. On the other hand, critics claim that the act of euthanasia is nothing more than a fabricated form of murder. Both sides have pertinent points to ponder when it comes to understanding and assessing the conflict, but euthanasia supporters have a significantly stronger argument. The writer discusses that physician-assisted suicide is not only the right thing to do for someone seeking such a decision, but it is ethical and humane for a physician to abide by the patient's wish. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
