Is selling people’s organs Obama’s answer to pay down the debt?

[The Sons of Liberty]

Well Cass Sunstein, you and your boy 0bama can come get mine, of course YOU might become an organ donor in the process.

[Voter62vb]

I don’t know but selling gonads would make a vast difference!!!!

Vas deferins? no?

[tatsinfla]

i just can not believe the stories i am hearing on a daily basis...who are all these people and where did they come from that obama is surrounding himself with to make and or suggest policy....i watching vidio last night of this van horn guy that is the green czar..??...he believes that the u.s. gov’t took down the towers...he believes that the white man is purposely polluting the black mans neighborhoods...stand up America and take back your gov’t before it is too late...we used to laugh at movies like soylent green and logans run and books like 1984...but they are all coming true right before our eyes...

[Crolis]

Sunstein and those that swirl around or are part of the Obama administration, to include Obama himself, are depraved miscreants. They have fallen (mostly by their own act of will) away from any idea that a human being has intrinsic dignity and that life is sacred.

Once you deny life, it's easy to rationalize denying liberty, property, and anything else that is expedient.

[Voter62vb]

There is no “I” in Obama...

[Huck]

“The major obstacle to increasing [organ] donations is the need to get the consent of surviving family members

Consent is definitely an annoying obstacle for statists.

[Huck]

I’m afraid if I’m an organ donor, some hospital will let me die and harvest me rather than save my life.

[mkjessup]

BINGO!

We have a winner!

[Tenniel2]

... which will work every bit as well as the "opt-out" checkboxes for book "clubs" and spam and other intrusive junk.

Once the presumption that our persons -- not to mention our thoughts and time and energies and property -- by default belong to the almightly State takes root, it's all over.

Fortunately, we're not quite there. Not just yet.

[Abathar]

I’m a donor now, they can have it when I’m done with it if I can help someone.

However, if they do this and take the choice from me I will sign the “screw you unless you are family” line so fast their heads will spin. For me it’s enough that they want what I have earned for my family when I die inheritance wise, this goes too far.

I don’t drink, but if they ever tell me I can’t I will build a still before the sun sets. Same thing goes here, take the choice from me and will do it just for spite.

[Texas resident]

China already does organ harvesting sometimes on people that are not done using their organs.
Maybe that’s why ozero was so impressed with China.

[wrench]

Under obamacare, all medical records will be in the national medical database. They will already have you typed and cross matched, and will know if your organs are a match when one of “the chosen” is in need of a liver, lung, heart, etc.

Then you will have an unfortunate accident.

[Anima Mundi]

Here is how to shorthand argue this so anybody understands it and most have had direct experience with this approach. It is pure and simple....this is the BOOK OF THE MONTH CLUB approach to government.

It sounds all “new” and “scientific” (please..the SCIENCE of choice?) and these guys think they are BRILLIANT and have discovered something.

But it is the oldest trick in the book of selling products. Who has not signed up for something FREE and then found themselves AUTOMATICALLY enrolled to a monthly obligation. And it is made very difficult to opt out.

And add to that the government’s ability to withhold money from you, tap into your bank account put a hold on your wages, a lien on your property, fine you, jail you, keep your social security if you do NOT make the RIGHT decision, which of course is their right to decide.

This is the reverse of the assumption of the Constitution where we are assumed to have rights UNLESS otherwise stated.

And this is why people are, and should be freaked out by the counseling every five years whether you want it or not. The counselors will “nudge” you to make the “right” decision - not for you, but for “society”.

Us to them: JUST STOP IT! How about we use this same idea? Let us ASSUME that the government has enough of or money already and assume that we ourselves earned it with the sweat of our brow and assume that we won’t pay taxes unless they specifically check little boxes and forms that WE have designed. And I don’t mean one form. No, they have to fill out the form I design, the one my neighbor designs, the one you design. Otherwise, we will assume that they should do the right thing and not steal from us. I think I may be warming to this idea.

[Voter62vb]

You are so right: There is only on “I” in Obama.

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

enlisting the science of choice

The science of choice. That's a new one.

[PapaBear3625]

Your seriously injured and taken to the hospital. The government appointed doctor in the emergency ward says that your not worth saving.

Or your doctor just doesn't like white males in general

You laying on the table and your unconscience, and they need to meet their monthly quotas.

Or like benewton you are diabetic, and are costing them too much money out of the regional budget.

[A Strict Constructionist]

I thought this crowd didn’t believe in the profit motive.

IF an A- with a rare antibody and there was a Democrat needing a transplant, I would sure stay out of the hospital, you might find yourself running on empty.

[Grampa Dave]

Of course, early harvests on conservatives would be like an abortion in the sick minds of the liberals.
