No thanks. Too many horror stories of hospitals being quick to pull the plug if the patient is a donor. I am never checking that box again.

Yeah #### that! I’m not trading my kidney for a voucher.

That’s like a bookmaker giving you a voucher.

And contrary to popular belief, there can be complications from going through life with one kidney.

Pop only had one. Lost one at 10. It made for problems by his 40s.

After hearing the rumor that sometimes the donor family gets charged (for removing the donated organs) because the donee has no health insurance, a friend asked the DMV if that was possible and they said “No comment”. They quit checking the box as well.

I stopped too. That, and too many organs wasted on illegal aliens to the detriment of Americans and legals.

Then, Congress disallowing organ banks that don't have enough of blacks willing/able to donate, thereby short-changing everybody over the appearances of "discrimination".
