I checked no for the same reason. Also I don’t want corporations to profit off my body parts. It would be different if they shared the money with my family or they at least got to choose who got them.

But then your organs just go to waste, rather than be used to save lives.

Yeah it’s true but I’d rather not enrich a bunch of middle men. I think the system is unfair and I don’t want to contribute

You feel sufficiently strongly to condemn those in need of organ transplant, potentially, to death?

If you see them as victims of the system, doesn't refusing to donate your organs literally making things worse for them?

It feels like you're saying "I could save your life, but I won't because the system isn't the way I want it."

Is that a reasonable summary, or am I misunderstanding what you mean?

I see it like i see the Salvation Army. They do a lot of good but every time you donate a portion of the donation goes to hateful causes and so the entire thing is tainted and I refuse to donate to them.
