I don't think the poor will be aided. and as I said, kidneys are free right now, but people can't always afford the surgery to get the new one.
when ever we have a pay-for, competative issue like this it ends the same way- the rich win and the poor lose.
Isn’t it more wrong do allow thousands of people to die every year from a man-made kidney shortage?

I think letting people sell will do more harm than good.
more people should donate organs or ensure they are registered to donate (many people have the intention to donate after death but forget to check their resistration.)
I think spending money on campaigns to get people aware of how doning can help others is the best thing we can do with this issue (at least for right now)
