Cass Sunstein what are you thinking?

Our newly confirmed regulatory czar believes it’s ok to harvest organs from helpless patients without consent.

He postures in his book that the state owns the rights to body parts. Funny I think I overlooked that in the Bill of Rights. We as individuals have the right to donate organs and perpetuate health and life in strangers. We have the right to choose.

What happens to the ethics of dying with dignity? We have the right to formulate advance directives. To make decisions regarding life sustaining measures. We have the right not to be placed on machines or to have invasive procedures performed. We have the right to face our death hopefully with the support of family and loved ones.

How could anyone choose to willingly impose more anxiety during an already emotional time? Who wants to wake up every day with the task of carving up people for parts? How do you explain this decision? Dear Mr. and Mrs. Smith sorry your mom is dying and by the way she really doesn’t need to see you sobbing over her so we are going to arrange to remove her corneas today. Please do not worry we will pump her full of drugs and she won’t feel a thing.

How insane is such a concept? Cass Sunstein what do you put on your Wheaties in the morning?

He also makes the statement that harvesting organs from involuntary donors would not be impossible to defend. Pay a lawyer enough money and anything can be defended. What’s your point here? The idea is wrong, wrong and wrong.

What do you think is the idea of harvesting organs relevant to everyday people?
