There is a lot of money in human organs, but I’m sure they aren’t anxious to declare someone dead just because of the dollar signs in their eyes.

It’s your body to do with as you wish, unless you want to sell an organ. Then it belongs to the State and well connected medical profession.

I have heard from TWO nurses, that these body-snatchers won’t give you certain kinds of chemotherapy or medicines if you are an organ donor, because they will make the body parts unusable.

If that wasn’t sarcasm, then you are naive.

You are misinformed. You have to be alive to donate those lungs, kidneys, your heart. Once you are dead your organs aren't usable.

They use the term "brain dead" because otherwise no relative would sign the organs away.
