Modest proposal: buy babies for parts
MedicalAdoptions.com is a clever satire. The website offers to help you - yes, you! - adopt an orphan, in order to harvest a body part. After all, "Finding high-quality organs in a timely fashion can often be a problem."
We are the only safe, legal adoption agency in the world currently offering guaranteed donor status. Not only do we use the most advanced medical techniques to insure the highest levels of compatibility, but we offer a guaranteed, legal means of getting that organ you just can't find anywhere else. We're not the least expensive service in the market, but we are the best.
The children's profiles page is especially dark, a string of nasty little stories.
