There should be a market for organs (both organs of deceased and extra organs of living, like kidney)
but
score: 5
Then those who have more wealth could purchase vast amounts of organs and retain them in storage. Therefore, those with more wealth would have control over the supply and demand of organs. The poor man's survival would ultimately be at the discretion of the wealthy. Sounds like a horror film.
it would reduce the wait time of those in need of organs, save countless lives, and provide assistance to families of deceased loved ones by paying them for their loved ones' organs.
It is an entirely non-consensual practice that would effectively force those living in poverty to surrender their internal tissues at steadily lesser prices.
Its a fallacy to say that because poor people could sell organs that they would compelled to as well. Some certainly may choose that it would not be worth.
veritas
The practice would be consensual, as the premise lists a free market of organs. No person would be forced to sell organs without their consent. Additionally, the above argument implies that it is less moral to give an option to alleviate poverty than to continue living in poverty without the option.
This means that only the rich would be able to get organs easily. These who are poor without much money will have a much harder time, and may die because of it.
