Farmer Jones realized his prize boar disappeared at the time of his heart transplant... And there was a reason which was sinister...
Ping!
“On the other hand, the technique of intermediate organ transplant into an animal is morally neutral. If a bioengineered human kidney can be made from the patient’s own cells, as Harold Ott at Massachusetts General is currently working to do, I see no objection to growing it inside a mouse or a pig until it can be transplanted into a human at the appropriate age.”
Sound good to me, oink oink.

How 3D Printing Could End The Deadly Shortage Of Donor Organs

LOL!
It's not rocket science, technically or philosophically.
Just like government so-called charity. If the donor has to be robbed with the boot and guns of government to provide said charity, it is ill-gotten gains, robbery, no longer charity.
If charity is not individually voluntary, it becomes some darker thing.
Always.
No horse jokes yet ping.
Should read: There’s a government-caused shortage...
What about simply using them as bio-incubators for engineered organs made using the new 3-D organic printing being developed?
