For liberals, progressives, democrats and many republicans the “means” in the expression “means to an end” are the reward or the end result that they want to achieve. The “end” in the expression “means to an end” is not relevant since applying the “means” is what they want.
E.G. Kathleen Sebelius, why did she want the authority to make the decision that pertains to her comment “some live and some die”. It wasn’t the future or end of her life she was deciding. It was the life of Sarah Murnaghan.
For conservatives the “end” is the goal. Because that is the reason for the exercise.

What I am quite but not completely sure of is that I would support not preventing anyone from not doing what they do not want to do. However, in some situations I would not recommend such behavior.
