Human Organ Transactions
The debate concerning organ supply and the ethical considerations surrounding the pricing has always been inconclusive. There has always been a global demand for human organs arising due to the need for organ transplants in various locations. However, the demand-supply curve in America is similar to states where the sale of organs is illegal; there is always a higher demand insatiable by the available suppliers.
The current pricing system of the human organs is criticized due to its unfairness and inequality. There is always a line for people waiting to have organ transplants, but organ allocation is done on the patient’s ability to survive. In the process of rationalization necessitated by the present pricing system, organ allocation may land on the affluent. At the same time, those with less financial potential remains to wait for suitable donors. Without monetary compensation also, the system risks receiving less viable organs.
Profit-making transactions involving human organs are generally not ethically acceptable. Although US citizens may be allowed to purchase organs anywhere, the quality of the organs may be less compatible with their needs. Foreigners may also buy organs from Americans, although there is a high risk of incompatibility. With the current pricing system of organs, selling and buying organs across the globe should be allowed because it is within the premises of the pricing mechanism.
The BibleBible urges human beings to remember God, who enables them to acquire wealth and, in return, use their acquisitions to praise Him and support their families. The bible advocates for the creation of wealth using moral means and states on the relevance of saving little to gain the trust of managing massive property. While the BibleBible urges people to create wealth morally and use this to help their families and God, the secular perspective is guided more by economics and the need for profit with the little observance of morals. The use of wealth according to secular stance is also governed by market forces and the desire to save much, with few individuals holding a moral obligation.
