I'm against state mandated organ donations. This might give cause to let someone die so they can harvest their organs????
I agree and can see things going that way with a tendency to go "DNR" too easily at the very least. Naive to think there will not be abuse. Let's face it, the NHS in the UK cannot even keep records accurate or secure when you are alive so I have very little confidence in the security of a do not harvest 'opt-out' being 100% error-free when you are dead.
Anyhow, by the time I've finished with my organs I doubt they will be fit for much else - so not too worried on my own account... but I don't favour a State right. Governments and health professionals quite simply cannot be trusted with that.
I recommend having a good watch of this 'golden oldie' : http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0077355/
