ORGAN DONATION BY DEFAULT

I have signed up to be an organ donor and I believe organ donation to be quite honorable, but I have huge problems with the presumed consent proposal.

Brodsky is just a self-serving political hack making hay on the back of his daughter's miracle ! i waited 8 years for my Transplant-Miracle & i am blessed to be alive every day - having said that - Organ Donation is & should be a personal decision & not a law passed to garner votes !

More public education about the truths & not the myths of Organ Donation would go a lot farther to educating the "donating public" & gather more Donated Organs than another effin law.
Assemblyman Skartados did a wonderful public forum that taught more of the public about the truths of Donation than any Brodsky-tainted law.

DONATE LIFE !!! become an Organ Donor ! It SAVES LIVES !!!

If the organ is donated does the recipient receive it for free? If not, I think voluntary organ donors [or rather, their surviving family members] should be paid for the contribution. Why should the medical community make megabucks off our personal tragedies? Don't they (too generic, but it will have to do...) exploit us enough already?
