Abstract

Citizens of underprivileged areas submit to temptations and end up selling their organs for their great need for money. Some say that it is a personal choice and that each is responsible for making such a decision, while others believe that such a transaction is inherently unethical. In reality, the exchange of an organ for money does not end well most of the time. Quite often, the gangs and doctors receiving the organ fail to abide by the agreement leading to the ethical dilemma resulting from organ selling. Organ selling should never be legalized since there would always be a price war and its effects could not be confined. People by nature are greedy; thus, leading to black market again. Moreover, the demand is much more than the supply; thus, there is no specified criteria for who receives the organ as any method used would eventually lead to more complications.
