You may want to look "research" again there are a handfull of private prisons that
require an inmate to be an Organ Donor. Not legal in state/federal run facilities only
prtivate in a select few states that allow it. Go google it....

I did. Didn't see anything about forced organ donations by prisoners in the U.S. Got a
URL to document forced organ donation here? After all the revelations about prisoner
abuses in the past such as the drug experiments and that syphillus study, it's hard to
imagine that organ donations (involuntary or otherwise) would go totally unnoted in the
media and the Internet.

Also look here!!! wonder how much the prison/industrial complex would gain....

1. It's a bill to allow voluntary donations, not forced ones.

2. It's only in SC.

3. There's absolutely nothing there about "how much the prison/industrial complex would
gain".

4. The bill is so controversial and repugnant (not to mention in violation of federal
law) that it was stripped from a larger bill offering other considerations to prisoners,
and is bottled up in committee. My guess is that it will die there.

The key word here is "forced". Prisoners in China usually (or more likely, always) don't
have a choice. And we certainly don't have an ongoing cottage industry of organ farming
in our prisons the way they do in China.
