Where I don't necessarily disagree is on the merits of the policy. It might be the lesser of two evils, the other evil being the violation of property rights. It's dead flesh and peoples' lives are at stake, I mean fuck dude.
They did a story not long ago on HMO's paying doctors to not completely fix people... do just barely enough... like a band aid. They get a bonus the less they do. Why would this be any different?

Yeah, but it is MY dead flesh, and I will choose if I want you to have it.
