Abstract
Imagine the following scenario. A few years from now, those who can afford it will contract cloning labs to grow clones to supply duplicate organs or replace body parts. Clones will be genetically matched to clients so they can be used in transplants without being attacked by the client’s immune system. To side-step the ethical argument of what is considered human, the client’s clones will be grown as headless embryos, without a brain or a central nervous system.
Using embryo cloning techniques developed in Britain in the late 1990s, the cloning labs will grow these headless clones to match each stage of a child’s or adult’s development, so that organs will be available throughout the client’s life.
In this potential, rather troubling, future, business is booming. Cloning labs have doubled their facilities in just 5 years and there is demand for more. In fact, the cloning labs have been so successful they have built a family alliance facility, where poor families are paid to breed children for the purpose of organ harvesting. (Think abortions)
Black Market Organs
If this all sounds too implausible then it’s worth highlighting two main issues affecting the organ market. First, most countries depend on altruistic motives for obtaining organs, which means depending on people becoming organ donors voluntarily. Unfortunately, despite increasing efforts, the gap between the number of people who need organs and the number of organs available is steadily increasing. In most countries only about a third of the population are donors, which means thousands of patients end up on transplant lists every year and thousands die while on the waiting lists because of the lack of donor organs. Many more die because, for whatever reason, their name never even made the list. Clearly the altruistic method isn’t working.

I've seen on Tgram and X where people who have been digging on the Obama's have not been able to find records where Michael ever gave birth. BO looks just like the oligarch you speak of as well......
