Should people be allowed to sell their organs?

Asked by trolltoll (2570points) August 28th, 2016

Today I learned that thousands of people die while waiting on an organ for transplant. Meanwhile, it is illegal to sell your organs in the United States.

Legalizing the sale of human organs would seem to solve the problem of people dying for want of viable organs. (It would also make college a lot more affordable to a lot of people.) Should this practice be made legal?
