      Pretty much.

      There are people whose job is to be dispatched to traffic fatalities, check if they’re an organ donor, begin harvesting.

        I mean they go to the hospital, not the crash site, but that’s about right. The alternative is the organs get wasted because too much time passed, and that seems wasteful to me.

          The alternative is that injured people get adequate medical care and a chance to live. A body not being mutilated so someone can steal its organs isn’t a waste.

          Here let’s try a little thought exercise. A blank person is just a waste of organs. We’re better off just taking the organs.

          What does ‘blank’ have to become for you to staunchly agree,or disagree with that statement? Black, white, young, old, Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Chinese, Canadian, American, etc

          Where do you draw the line between a person’s organs serving their purpose and being a waste?

              Lol down votes with no rebuttal comments means the truth is being told

              I happened to see this comment first which is great because it means I can ignore everything else you said because this is one of those stupid things troll say. It’s about the level of “I KNOW YOU ARE BUT WHAT AM I”.

              I’m sure it makes you feel better about yourself, but it’s just as stupid as when I get angry and people not reading what I wrote[1] and bitching at them, which nets even more downvotes because people DEFINITELY don’t take the time to read my ranting about them not reading what I wrote in the first place.

              So, I mean, do as you please, but your comment that I quoted is simply bullshit and lame and has nothing to do with anything else you said.


              1. I recognize the irony of not reading your other comments and saying this ↩︎

          … Not for motorcyclists.

          Who wore full helmets.

          And have good eyes.

          Gotta get those on ice pretty fast, is what I’ve been told.

            Almost every motorcyclist I know is against organ donation.

            It’s almost like the medical industry acting like ghouls is driving people away from donation for some reason.

              Oh yeah, the American healthcare industry is so insanely corrupt and broken that uh, guess what?

              There’s no ethical healthcare under capitalism.

              If you’re a medical professional, and you’re willingly any part of this system?

              Nobody cares that its some other part of tue bureacracy that’s actually the bad guy and you’re just doing your job.

              Nope, fuck you, you’re just another, willing part of the machine that shackles people into debt slavery and destitution.

                  Miss me with your nationalistic bigotry, thanks.

                  I very clearly specified what I was talking about.

                  If you don’t wanna talk about it, don’t.

                    You think its bigotry to point put that the aussie.zone user talking about motorcyclists they know is not US centric and not what you should focus on?

            Yes, for all of those. A procurement specialist isn’t going on site. EMS is recovering the body, getting it to the hospital, and that’s where procurement happens.

        Yup. I’m not an organ donor, because A. If you are, and you’re injured, you don’t get a say in what happens to you, but the organ donation team sure as hell will. They’ll talk to everyone, the doctor, your family, the recipients family, all to convince them your not worth the effort so they can get your organs.

        The other reason, B. is that it’s a scam. They declare you ‘brain dead’, take your organs, then sell them to hospitals who are reimbursed by insurers. A life is saved, the hospital makes money, the doctors make money, the organ harvesters make money, insurance makes money. Your family gets fucking nothing,

        If you want my organs so that some rich shit bag can rape kids for another 5-10 years, your going to fucking pay. Rather your insurance is going to fucking pay. And if they don’t want to buy the ticket, then you shouldn’t get to take the ride.

        Organ donation is just a way to slaughter the young and poor to benefit the old and rich. They’ll gladly reduce your life span by 40 years to add another month to the life span of Zuckerberg, Bezos, Trump, or some other child raping traitor.

          Don’t forget the literally vampiric plasma “donation” industry.

          You know your town’s made it (to the bottom) when one of those sets up shop.

            Yeah, and I work in healthcare, so I also know that the blood bank is charging the hospital a few grand for the plasma that you donated for peanuts.

            Either medical care is socialized(which it should be) or it’s for profit… And in that case no one should EVER donate anything.

            Businesses can pay just as much as everyone else.
