Because it can and will be abused if any given law doesn't cover all the loopholes. Better yet, written into any particular constitution, covering each and every possible cause of failure or abuse. It should only´be offered to the terminally ill, not the ones suffering a temporary crisis. And it should prevent the government to take any role in it or any given company or individual to make a profit from it.

Well yeah, just about anything can be abused if you're not careful about it. But the fear of the government mandating people be killed to harvest their organs or whatever shouldn't stop people from saying they're ready to die when they want to.
