I hate not being an organ donor, but it's for this exact reason that I no longer am.
Oddly enough, what opened my eyes was taking on a role as an account executive for a large software company. I saw first hand how financial incentives always create the behavior that's being incentivized, often with unintended consequences.
As horrific as it is, if you incentivize death you will get more death. It's no different now with the Federal payments to hospitals for corona virus deaths.
I want my organs to give someone else a chance at life, but I'm for damn sure not going to leave my family early because of an unscrupulous medical system.
