Thanks to capitalism at it best........profit motive behind transplants of vital organs is very lucrative if the source is free to minimal....Oh, you though the medical community had standards, morals and ethics, why sure, girls like to have boob jobs and men like flashy cars....For Liberals/Progressives/Democrats your body belongs to the state, to the collective.

" According to the Washington Post, taxpayers are now financing, via a $321,000 HHS grant, a pilot program at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center-Presbyterian Hospital and Allegheny General Hospital in Pittsburgh to obtain organs from emergency room patients, a practice heretofore "considered off-limits in the United States because of ethical and logistical concerns."

Under capitalism, the standard of living of all was improving: prices falling, incomes rising, health and sanitation improving, lengthening of life spans, diets becoming more varied, the new jobs created in industry paid more than most could make in agriculture, housing improved, and middle class industrialists and business owners displaced nobility and gentry as heroes."

Gee, almost to the day two years later this speech by Rev. Sirico demonstrates how wrong a person can be. One must wonder if he will continue to defend these words, in the face of reality.
