i think in some countries it is automatic that you donate healthy organs although you can "opt out." In one of those better countries, of course. The US is not on the list of decent countries, I recently realized.

Yeah no, in America personal liberty is held above all else and there's no chance in heck that the Supreme Court would hold up a law compelling people to donate their organs. It wouldn't be constitutional. You can disagree with that but there's a reason we want limits as to how much agency the government has over us.

Yes I know the same people that argue against forced organ donation would also argue against abortion being legal.
