Organs for Sale

   I believe people should be able to sell their organs if they want to.  There are multiple reasons that I believe people should be able to sell, or do whatever they want, with their organs.  The biggest reason I have this strong belief is because the organs belong to a person.  People should be able to do whatever they want with their organs because the organs are their property.  Despite the fact that I believe selling organs should be allowed, I also believe there should be requirements for a person to be able to sell them.  If someone wants to sell his or her organs, those organs should be thoroughly inspected by doctors.  Only organs that are completely healthy and safe should be sold.  

   Another reason I believe the selling of organs should be legal is because it would probably increase the amount of available organs immensely.  Many people die because they are unable to receive a certain organ that they need to live.  But, if people were allowed to sell their organs, more organs would be available, and less people would die due to a failure of finding a new organ.  In the end, the ability for people to sell their organs could contribute to the saving of many lives.

  One more reason I think people should be allowed to sell their organs is because of profit.  Many people in this day and age are in severe need of money, and selling their organs could give them some extra money that might go a long way for them. 

         After reading the article at http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-10786211, my opinion has not changed, but it has been made stronger.  This article completely reiterates all of my beliefs on this topic.  It says organ selling should be legal because people have the right to do what they want with their body, and because it will increase the supply or organs.  I strongly believe the selling of organs should be legal.
