With all due respect; I am having some serious trouble with the last sentence.
maybe this is a cultural difference between our respective home-country's
or just a difference between you and me.
It is problably not fair that heirs don't get good cash for donated organs
but IMHO it would be terribly unfair to let a person die for lack of organs
when a perfectly suitable organ is rotting away in a grave somewhere.
Please don't misunderstand: I'm not saying one is "better" than the other
just that I'm having *real* difficulty to follow your thinking here.
And where did the "gunpoint" come from (didn't we already agree to disagree
on this subject - for now anyway ;-)?

Next time I'll check & doublecheck my info-resources, thanks.
