Organ Market

No because when you die they are no longer yours

Is this your opinion or what? Whats your basis for reasoning?

if you want to leave them specifically to your family or friends or whatever then go ahead but if they can't be used within the time they need to before they are no longer usable then it's just a waste.

I also think people should not be able to opt out of donating their organs too though so what does my opinion matter.

So you think that while people no longer own their corpses in the events of their deaths, they should still have the authority to bequeath their organs to family members, but that otherwise the state should have all authority to rifle through them in search of organs?

Supposing a system of mandatory organ donations, how do you think they should be distributed?

I'm not an expert but isn't that the case for loads of things like property and any capital you own? You can't own something if you die, you do however get the choice of who it is left to. If no next of kin can be found then does it not go to the government anyway?

Yeah, I think you should get to say who your organs are left to. As above I don't see it as being that different to any property you own. I don't think I'd be against them being sold when you were dead and that money being thrown into whatever inheritance you are leaving when you die. Especially if it increased the amount of organs donated.

As for the system of distribution I think they do an ok job currently with the organs that they get donated, but once again not 100% on exactly how the system works to go into details.
