Response to Alex's Blog Post

     I completely agree with everything Alex mentioned. It really seems that we share the same opinions on the selling of organs. I never thought about the fact that if we start putting price tags on organs people will start to receive donations due to social class not how high one is on the list. This will cause major issues and just thinking about the whole unfair aspect is sickening.

     Another idea that Alex brought up was the problem of the "black market". This issue is highly dangerous due to all the violence the black market has caused in the past. I completely agree with Alex that the concept of letting one sell their organs will cause the black market to go out of hand.

    My entire opinion about people "wanting to donate their organs is also Alex's main point in his blog post. He mentions that if people start selling their organs, the entire process of keeping the person donating the organ "private" will now be lost. Only the wealthy will be able to afford transplants and the poor even if they are first on the list, will not be able to afford an organ to save their lives.
