Friday, November 15, 2002The fairest way to carry out an incentive plan for organ donation is through the tax code. A cadaver donation should result in suspension of the estate tax and the final year of income tax. A live donation should be rewarded by a lifetime income tax exemption. If the concept of paying for organs meets too much resistance, why not simply level out the pool? Those who commit to being an organ donor when the time comes will get first priority if they find themselves in need of a transplant I don't know about the donor pool, but the income tax suggestion isn't a bad idea. posted by Sydney on 11/15/2002 07:54:00 AM 0 comments 0 Comments: |
