Gosh, I just knew somebody like you would show up.

Transplants are too expensive? Well, so is saving a child born months too early. Millions sometimes. Many families are either bankrupted by it or you end up helping pay for it. Are you also in favor of letting that child go or doing an abortion? If not, what’s the difference between that and your objections to transplants?

Quality of life is low? You know, most people in comas or vegetative states have an even lower quality of life, and their care also bankrupts families or puts a burden on other folks. So should we just cut off all that expensive equipment or maybe starve them to death? If not, what’s the difference?

Remember that both of the above situations also generate BIG bucks for select people.

The woman who got the pancreas of a dear relative of mine has since had a child, something she couldn’t do before. She could reject the pancreas and die any time now, but she has a child. You would deny her and her husband that? I never heard about the folks who got the kidneys and liver, but can only hope they had similar good results.

And I, in turn, knew that a self-righteous twit like you would show up, who is oh so generous when it comes to other peoples' money.

People like you are going to see to it that we are all slaves to the health care industry.
