I don’t know how you can support a less intrusive Government and still believe the Government owns you. If the State owns your body then you have nothing but a few temporary privileges granted by the Government out of the goodness of it’s heart. If the individual owns his body then it is his to use and sell however he decides is best.

I don't believe the government ownes me or my body. At the same time I think that I have a right not to be penalized for the idiocy of others.

If perfectly healthy people start selling organs there are medical implications not the least of which are infection and recovery.

As a result MY insurance would go up. You can't possibly dillute the costs associated with these types of things and nobody knows what would happen down the road. Sure you make $5,000 now but what if complications down the road result in expenses that the donor can't afford? Answer, it hits me in the pocket book not you.
