I'm tempted to ramble about the "theys" and physical resources, that transplants aren't independent of the rest of healthcare's shortages which aren't scaling well anyway... but I like your optimism. Maybe with more people thinking about how things should be rather than how it is we might make a difference.
In the meantime, everyone should spend a vacation volunteering in healthcare. Get to know it outside the media. Prepare for family and yourself. (Make use of your organs before they're removed?

FORCED Harvesting? Strong words there. It's hardly forced.

Some here suggested moving further, to mandatory donor status. Hence the "opt-out or forced" summary. Didn't mean to rile.
I still beleive it's an extreme measure and overkill, and I'm against taking decisions away, but after more thought I'm willing to let people stir up the healthcare mud. Visibility and big kicks may force change where small ones cannot.
