Also: "The United States ranks 1st in the world for incarcerated population and 5th for incarceration rate. The nation in 2nd place for population holds the 129th position for rate, imprisoning 1/5th as many people per capita. Which is this freedom-loving nation with, both absolutely and relatively, fewer prisoners than the US? China. The “land of the free” is more likely to imprison you than a regime so brutal that it has concentration camps." https://obviatethestate.substack.com/p/the-us-over-reliance-...

You or I could go buy an organ, sorry I meant find an organ donor match in China very quickly compared to the US/EU. How do you thinks it’s possible?

Not to take away from your point - but in France, Spain and Austria (and maybe others), everyone is an organ donor by default unless they opt out. So the EU may be an easier place to find an organ than the US (and not due to any nefarious reasons).

The organ trade is barely regulated in the US, as long as you say it's for science and not medical use.

Nice. Next someone should mention how asset forfeiture allows local and state police to cart off more wealth annually than the actual thieves they're intended to police.
