To me everyone should be. Think it's kind of selfish to let viable organs go to waste when people are in need for them.

I know someone who works in the organ donation industry, and that's what's made me question wanting to be an organ donor more than anything. The dilemma for me boils down to 1. You need to not be dead dead for your organs to be harvested 2. We are not really that good at determining what's good enough dead vs definitely alive but seems dead when time is critical, doctors are busy, and there's people actively pressuring for the transplant to happen.
