Benefits of selling organs

 In modern society, people can transact almost everything with the developed capitalism. Sometimes we can find something weird in markets. For example, in some countries like Japan, people sometimes buy friends for showing off their sociality in special occasions. Moreover, sperms and ovums can be dealt to help infertile couples to have their babies. With this trend, it might be considered natural that human’s organs could be in market. However, selling organs is still controversial because it is related to ethical issue. Some people argue there is no reason to prohibit selling organs, while others refute by reason of ethical conviction. However, selling organs must be legal.

 First reason why selling organs should be allowed is that all people have a right to live healthy and normal life. People with health problems are usually not be able to move freely and to do what they want like other healthy people. This kind of disability could make them frustrated and pessimistic for their lives. However, if selling organs is not allowed, the supply of organs would stay much lower than demand since the patients should expect someone to give their organs for no reason.

 In addition, selling organs could be an effective way for someone with serious financial problem to revive. Sometimes we can see people who find no way to solve financial problem by themselves and finally get to tragic situation like becoming homeless, and killing themselves. For them, selling their organs which do not cause health problem could be a valuable chance to start new life. It is obvious that living without an unimportant organ to life is much better than becoming homeless or killing themselves.

 More importantly, paying the price for someone who gives his/her organ makes more sense than paying nothing. Donation is definitely invaluable and respectable behavior. However it is never easy to give a part of body for another person. Even though donating organ needs lots of courage, many donors are not paid for their sacrifice. If transplanting organs is able to be allowed, there might be no reason to prohibit selling organs because compensating for some sacrifice is more moral and natural than taking something for free.

 Some people might think that we cannot buy and sell out body parts because they belong to God not to human being. However, considering that almost everyone tries to live longer against naturally occurring diseases, we could know this reasoning makes no sense. If they think our own body belongs to God, why ever they make so many efforts to get a healthy body by eating all kinds of artificial drugs? They are overreacting to selling organs just because it is unfamiliar to them.

To sum up, selling organs makes it possible to kill two birds with one stone since is allow more patients to have healthier life while helping peoples who sell their organs to get new opportunity by giving them lots of money. To be open-minded to accept new trends is usually hard, but it is also worth in order to take many advantages from new and unfamiliar things. So we have to be more acceptive of selling organs by considering some benefits of it because it could be a great opportunity for both receiver and giver.
