I agree. So just don't do the operation. It saves money. Major organ transplants, like liver transplants, are really the only operations to cost that kind of money. Canada has taken that point of view as well. Ssaves everybody money. I say let those people die. There is a point where the life of somebody is not worth the cost to keep them alive, and no $10/hr person is worth $400,000.
NDP renews call for change to organ donation system

Renewed calls today for the province to revamp its organ donation system. New democrats say last year 100 people died waiting for an organ transplant while healthy organs were wasted.
Listen to Lisa Naccarato's report on proposed changes to the organ donation program
MPP Peter Kormos has been championing this issue for years, this fall he'll re-introduce for a third time a private member's bill calling on the McGuinty government to change the organ donor system to one that presumes consent, instead of requiring written permission.
"As we speak, good organs are being burned or buried across this province. It takes the political will, the political will to do it."
Andres Cotic fully supports Kormos' bill, he's in desperate need of a liver transplant, the 60 year old Toronto man says there are thousands on the organ wait list suffering and dying in silence.
Like I said. Not doing the operations saves money. Canada knows. 100 people, $400,000 a piece. Canada saved $40,000,000. And those people would likely not be productive after the operation anyways. Canada knows what it's doing.
