The good news is that the Chinese govamint don't waste no body parts that
could benefit sick folks, so maybe there's people alive today who might
otherwise have died. The Chinese government also executes serial
rapists, serial arsonists, folks whose hobby is robbing others and the
like. Over here, we call 'em career criminals and give them free room
and board. Over there, they are just spare parts.
