If you think when you write down "Organ donor" on your drivers license, you're a good person, well maybe you are but here's the flip side. If your organs are healthy and there is a waiting list, there is more financial incentive for you to be put on drugs and pronounced brain dead, and if you don't think this is a business, put on your mask back on and go about your day like all the other sheep out there.

I agree, it IS sickening.
But I've been told (by a trusted friend employed at a city morgue) that "right age, health, gender, race... and a signed donor card is not the high priority so many of us would like to believe it is.
Like you mentioned, financial incentive and high demand fuels business, and it is BIG business.
Me, not being any where near the medical industry I was a little confused as to the need for coroner or medical examiner's office and what part they played. I will just say that the answers I got were far more disturbing (frightening) than any other aspect of the whole gruesome tale. (If I did not know this person as well as I do, I doubt I would have believed any of it. Just having to accept there are people among us that everyone considers 100% normal, but you know are capable of such atrocities, well honestly, the only thing that comes to mind is the old saying...
