This document discusses the organ shortage crisis in the United States and potential solutions. It notes that demand for organs is increasing due to more prevalent diseases and illnesses brought on by modern lifestyles. While organ transplants save lives, the process is controversial. The document examines opt-out versus opt-in organ donation systems and argues that adopting an opt-out system, where people are assumed donors unless they explicitly opt out, could help address the organ shortage by encouraging more people to consider donation. Details from a European bill that implemented an opt-out system are provided.
