A pack a week? Might as well quit then. That's almost like not being addicted.
eh
I smoke in the morning and at night with a coffee, more in a social environment
I do it because I love the flavor and feeling, not because I need to

Just make sure that you never get a bounty on your head. If a respective bounty hunter knows about you being a donor, they could be incentivized by a local hospital to bring you in (brain) dead.I am, but honestly, it makes me kind of uneasy - I feel like I'm now more valuable dead than alive.

Donating to a medical training university requires an intact body, so that's one reason to not be an organ donor (unless you count that in an overall "donor" umbrella?)Outside of religion what is the rationale for not being a donor?

Nothing pisses me off more than people who think being an organ donor puts you on some hit list or doctors won't save you.
Organ donor status should be the default in America.
Heh
I haven't but it doesn't surprise me. I have a friend whose dad works in the medical field, and their dad thinks there's an organ conspiracy. He's a nurse, like what?!Ever heard those people also mention the Chinese Uyghur situation as an example why they don't want to be donors? I've actually heard that one.
A person at my work has said they don't want to be one because they are scared that hospitals will let them die if they are ever in their care so they can harvest their organs for someone else.Outside of religion what is the rationale for not being a donor?
I don't have first hand experience but I don't imagine you get much use of them once you are dead.
Seems a lot of Europe has an opt-out system, but most of the rates are still worse or just barely better compared to the US's rates.I already am. It's opt-out in Spain. It's really ingrained into us too, culturally speaking. I don't know how it happened, but it is.
US rates are really good considering it's opt-in.
Is there a way for your organs to be sold by your family when you die instead of donated?
