People will tell you that they don't want to spend the extra effort at the DMV.

WTF? Isn't saying YES the exact same effort as saying NO? I was just asked a question, and I answered. No extra work necessary.

Yes, because I'm not a selfish [censored] moron.

Anybody who chooses not to is either really lazy, a malicious jerk, or a superstitious assbagel.

Perhaps I was a bit too harsh. Paranoid schizophrenia might also be a reason for choosing not to.

Or religious doctrine.

i can respect people not doing it for religious beliefs. Or even normal beliefs.

I do wish there was more of an education for the needs though

Just curious as to whether you would donate your organs (either dead or alive) and the reasoning behind your choice.

Thanks!

[/ QUOTE ]

I was, then I learned about the system and how everyone is making money off of the organs except for the donor. Rather than allowing a family to accept compensation for a deceased family member's organs, they donate them, and every person involved in the harvest, transport and transplant makes money off of it, the family makes nothing. It should be a way for families to pay for unexpected funerals, or increase their standard of living, instead, they are left with nothing.

I am no longer a donor, and I hope that others will stop donating as well. The only way to open the system is to close off the supply.

Yeah, let's kill people to make a silly point. Every single person involved in the process makes money for doing a service. Transporting and operating take time, effort, and money. Donating the organs you're no longer using doesn't really cost you anything.
