| QUOTE | | Interestingly, it's fueling a business in organ trade which Red China benefits from only because we have, insanely, outlawed organ trade in this part of the world. |
It is also worth noting that the excuses proferred for prohibiting such trade in the West are that the poor would be "exploited" by the wealthy. In fact this is precisely what has resulted from the ban.
They were afraid that the tempation of all that money would cause poorer people to make difficult and sometimes mistaken desicions about selling organs. Which is absurd considering the number of people who would be involved and the transparency which would be the result.
Instead, now, we have an evil government being payed to execute its populace en masse for the benefit of a corrupt and amoral few. Far beyond the nightmares of even the staunchest opponent of organ exchange.
There, are you happy with the results? It now comes as no surprise to me that many early conceptions of hell involved sadistically ironic punishments. That is how reality works.
