Imagine how many matching organs are just left to rot in the ground.

Can't just implant a 90 year old liver. And a lot of them are unsalvageable. Doesn't mean it shouldn't be mandatory, just that it will still be a limited resource.

I don't want to be morbid, but with as many gun deaths as there are in the US there are lots of young livers to go around.
