One of the biggest arguments against legalizing organ trade is that the people selling their organs for money would be exploited. Wikipedia claims that the "average reported price around the world that a donor receives for a kidney is $5,000, while the average price paid on the black market to receive the kidney is $150,000." Which group (if any) would you say is more exploited as a result of organ trade-those who sell kidneys on the legal or illegal market? Explain. Who is better off, and who is worse off as a result of kidney trading?
