Okay, so it seems that a lot more people are organ donors than I thought. I have another question now though, regarding an idea brought up in my first thread.
Do you think it would be moral to do preferential organ placement based on donor status? Meaning that a person who needed an organ but had chosen not to be a donor would be less likely to receive a donated organ than someone who had?
The logic behind this idea is that one cannot reasonably expect a service from someone that one is unwilling to provide for others.
Does this sound fair? Ethically and morally right? What do you think?
