It’s especially creepy that he says health care decisions should be left up to doctors – not patients.  What if a doctor wants to do something to me that I don’t want done?  If we weren’t talking about minors, I would see an individual rights argument if he had said “patient,” although I ultimately think that individuals should not be able to request harm from doctors.  I think they should be able to turn down help (or harm or anything), but not request harm.
