RE: I am so proud: The Dutch are changing their law to "Everybody is organ donor, unless..."

in #health7 years ago

I believe there's an afterlife; but that doesn't mean we'll need our organs for it.
I heard of a scheme in the US, members receive organs from members.
The only way to become a member is to agree to donate your organs to other members.
Opting into or out of organ donation entirely, as both donor and recipient simultaneously.
As a fan of the free market, I'd like to see people able to sell their organs, with proceeds going to their estates, but that's not likely any time soon.

Sort:  

I wouldnt like the free market on this, because people will go into desparate measures for some cash. And frankly, if enough people would voluntarily be donor...it woulnt be necessary!

Maybe the scheme isnt such a bad thing??
