An old S-F novel (i don't remember nor the title neither the author) i read
in past 70's
introduced a vision of society based upon the total control of recycled
organs (to permit to save live and prolongate it).
Because of a lack of human organs donations (humanity becoming then very
numerous), society shifted to new goals
and politically decided to use new ways to obtain the raw.
A new vision about what's delictual and what's criminal appeared, and
gradually, insidiously,
everything became more and more prone to be subjected to the rigors of the
law (and of the needs).
Then, ... you crossed a road far from traffic lights ? Death penalty ! With
re-use of your organs, for state benefit ...
When i read that, i was schocked. ... but i was so young.
Is China able to do this now ? Will they do it ? I don't know.
But i think we need to make a quick return on ourselves and try to look the
truth in the face, on behalf of humanity.
Aren't us so far from that phenomenon, while actually anyone is willing to
kill (economically, politically, socially, militarly, physically) just to
maintain his lifestyle or just triumphantly justify its simple personal
opinions or system theories ??
Are we, somewhere, in the way of renewving the same model, like described
(in an another way) in the old movie "2025 : the survivors" ???
