Doctors have a financial incentive for transplants.
Hospitals have a financial incentive for transplants.

The rest of us want readily available medical care without super-inflated costs.

Solution: Allow the estates of voluntary organ donors to be paid. Then you'd have all the legitimate organ donors you'd need and with the artificial scarcity removed the costs would drop. There would be no need to kill patients for their organs - there would be plenty of donors.

Oddly, doctors and hospitals oppose any payments to families.

Strange, isn't it?

Not really...

At least not half as strange as your comments.

Beside the fact that you insinuate that the medical profession is wholly unethical, who else in the US works for no financial incentive...

Should transplant teams, physicians and hospital facilities be expected to operate at a moments notice for nothing?
