I know many here don't trust the hospitals anyway, that they will kill you for your organs. And that may be right. But, why would any of us pure bloods ever donate our organs when they don't allow us to receive organs. Let's break the system.

Actually, I have heard now from several doctors that the organs must be harvested while the donor is alive. Meaning, they cannot accept organs removed after the host dies. Donors are usually those in a vegetative state, and are harvested before a family decides to terminate life support.
Now this is just some recent information I've heard from supposed doctors, so not sure how accurate it is. But it brings the practice into question and if you think of it, the medical community has never disclosed to people who sign up as donors the process involved for how your organs might be harvested. They don't disclose the costs involved, who pays for them, and who profits and how much. Based on these facts, it seems as though the donor industry has something to hide.
My uncle got a liver and a kidney throughout his life because of some serious chronic health issues he faced. He was nothing more than a farmer. The organs he received extended his life by about 25 years, and I'm always very grateful for that time, and for the organ donations that allowed him to live much much longer than he ever would have otherwise. The organs go to normal people who are sick. The organ transplant boards have incredibly huge hurdles if not outright no answers to people who have substance abuse issues, and they take those things incredibly seriously.
