!  Using unwanted adults as an organ supply has already been suggested.  The

!  happens to their body after their death, and all their organs would be
!  available for transplants. The idea is that they just may save more lives
!  than they destroyed.

!  When the politicians get hold of this, it will undoubtedly become law.
!  After all, the "people" can extend their lifes with it. It will also doom
!  the movement to do away with the death penalty. Finally, you can expect the
!  death penalty to be applied to steadily less severe crimes, until to many
!  moving violations gets you sent to the organ banks.

!  Isn't the will of the majority fun?
