I’d love to see this organ “donation” business go under. I don’t think it will happen in my lifetime, but I think there’s BIG money in not resuscitating organ donors who might otherwise make it through.

You want to condemn 50k Americans to death each year?

“Are these people out of their minds or something? Do you honestly believe that if a paramedic finds that card on you in an automobile accident, he’s going to try to save your life? Bullshit! He’s looking for parts, man. Absolutely. “Look Dan, here’s that lower intestine we’ve been looking for. Never mind the oxygen, this man’s a donor.”

They can have my rectum and my anus. That’s all I’m giving, take them and get out of here. Put them in your bag and get out of my life. That’s all I’m giving. I don’t want some guy poking around in me hoping I die, I want to live. I don’t want to die. That’s the whole secret of life… not dying! I figured that out alone in third grade.” — Carlin

They already use pig parts for heart valves replacements here in the US. A side effect is you get queasy at barbecues.

Gosh - I guess you don’t have the “donor” box checked on your license. I suppose there may be a very few cases where someone might ‘live’ but for the most part, organs save the lives of others who can actually live.
