Meanwhile in the U.K. - Presumed Consent
Here's a concept that should give you pause.
This is about organ donation; however, the concept itself should give us all pause for concern.
Try to imagine having to opt out of everything; even those things that you don't know about; and then, think about circumstances where you weren't physically able, or couldn't produce your "opted out" documents.
Ugh!...

At LifeSiteNews.com, Hilary White reports:
"Despite his own task force having said that it will not succeed, UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown has said he will not give up on a plan that would see every person in the UK automatically registered as an organ donor.
Brown said of the task force and his plan, 'While they are not recommending the introduction of a presumed consent system, as I have done, I am not ruling out a further change in the law.' The PM indicated that the government would 'revisit' the question at the end of the 'next stage' of the campaign."
