Organ-transplant System Considering Rules That Would Benefit Younger, Healthier People

Take the Washington Post's title to this story  in stride. I think they mean choosing younger people to extend their lives for our debt based economy of workers, those enslaved from birth to fund the Federal Reserve system of banking with their lives. Why would they want to extend an older person's life who has no work value and is only going to take money from the social security system?

The food-pharma-banking system provides genetically modified foods and boxes of chemicals impersonating foods that keep the human machine running to be able to work, but constantly sick so that they take overpriced meds while consuming mandatory medicines in our waters such as the toxic waste by-product fluoride birthed  from our nuclear war industry, all the while too sedated and ill to fight back as they take out credit from our corrupt banking systems to pay off school loans that are about 8 times your current salary, to by a home, should you even pay it off, that you'll never own and will be seized should you miss a tax payment.

When thinking of this type of system, I'm reminded of the film I rewatched the other night from 2009 called Repo Men, with the basic premis being, and not so far off from our current banker slime execs: "In 2025, a corporation called "The Union" has perfected the creation of bio-mechanical organs, which are available to those with money or "good credit". If a customer falls three months behind on payments, a "repo-man" is sent to reclaim the artificial organ. The process of the repossession almost always results in the death of the customer."

The nation's organ-transplant network is considering giving younger, healthier people preference over older, sicker patients for the best kidneys.

Instead of giving priority primarily to patients who have been on the waiting list longest, the new rules would match recipients and organs to a greater extent based on factors such as age and health to try to maximize the number of years provided by each kidney - the most sought-after organ for transplants.

"We're trying to best utilize the gift of the donated organ," said Kenneth Andreoni, an associate professor of surgery at Ohio State University who chairs the committee that is reviewing the system for the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS), a private, nonprofit, Richmond-based group contracted by the federal government to coordinate organ allocation. "It's an effort to get the most out of a scarce resource."

Indiana Deputy Attorney General: "Use Live Ammunition" Against Wisconsin Protesters

A conservative deputy AG let his emotions get out of hand. It wasn't the first time.

Indiana attorney general fires deputy over 'live ammunition' tweets aimed at Wisconsin protestors
http://www.indystar.com/article/20110223/NEWS05/102230406/1001/sports/Indiana-AG-fires-deputy-over-live-ammunition-tweets

On Saturday night, when Mother Jones staffers tweeted a report that riot police might soon sweep demonstrators out of the Wisconsin capitol building—something that didn't end up happening—one Twitter user sent out a chilling public response: "Use live ammunition."

From my own Twitter account, I confronted the user, JCCentCom. He tweeted back that the demonstrators were "political enemies" and "thugs" who were "physically threatening legally elected officials." In response to such behavior, he said, "You're damned right I advocate deadly force." He later called me a "typical leftist," adding, "liberals hate police."
Only later did we realize that JCCentCom was a deputy attorney general for the state of Indiana.

As one of 144 attorneys in that office, Jeff Cox has represented the people of his state for 10 years. And for much of that time, it turns out, he's vented similar feelings on Twitter and on his blog, Pro Cynic. In his nonpolitical tweets and blog posts, Cox displays a keen litigator's mind, writing sharply and often wittily on military history and professional basketball. But he evinces contempt for political opponents—from labeling President Obama an "incompetent and treasonous" enemy of the nation to comparing "enviro-Nazis" to Osama bin Laden, likening ex-Labor Secretary Robert Reich and Service Employees International Union members to Nazi "brownshirts" on multiple occasions, and referring to an Indianapolis teen as "a black teenage thug who was (deservedly) beaten up" by local police. A "sensible policy for handling Afghanistan," he offered, could be summed up as: "KILL! KILL! ANNIHILATE!"
