Heart, Kidney and Liver Transplant Waiting List

Post by bobevenson »

Why should you have to get on a waiting list? Why is it illegal to buy and sell body parts at a mutually agreed upon price in a free market? This is what's wrong with socialism, no matter where it's practiced, even in the United States.

Every day, in every way, you slide further and further into lunacy. Does that worry you at all, Bob? Can you feel it coming on?

Talk about lunacy, I wish some of those dead and wounded war veterans could somehow shove their shrapnel down your throat and up your ass!

How much do you reckon I should get for my liver, Bob? I've lived a rather dissipated life so I'd be lying if I said it was in mint condition but it should have a few miles left in it.

If you default on a bank loan, and the CEO's dog needs a new liver, can he demand that in lieu of payment? Remember The Merchant of Venice and the pound of flesh? That's what will happen when/if organs are monetized.

I don't know, I'm not a broker, but the question is moot since buying and selling body parts is illegal.

You are obviously an enemy of freedom and a friend of tyranny and despotism.

Actually, we're merely acquaintances, not friends. :lol:

With acquaintances like you, who needs friends?

I'd rather have one good drinking buddy than an army of friends. Too bad I won't get that, as I don't drink. :(

No way! I don't do anything in half-measures.
