Is the human body like a joke in this world?

    We already know that no one in this world can buy life.  But unfortunately not everyone is born perfect with complete and healthy organs. They must survive in various ways even if it is the wrong way. It can be by buying a part of human life that causes people to live with incomplete bodies. In general, many people in the modern world are unwilling to legalize the sale of human organs even if it was a part of a dead human body (Mill, 2009). Should the sales of human organs be legally or not, it is rather difficult to find a satisfied answer to this hot question at the moment. However, in the modern world the growth in organ transplants is influenced by lack of organs while the desire for people to survive is very high. It is very important to legalize the sale of human organs so that it will not harm anyone. There are several reasons why legalizing the sale of human organs must be done and can avoid the crimes that have occurred in the community.

    The first reason is saving lives. The world should understand that in many cases if someone didn’t get the organ they need they will suffer and have to die in some cases. For example if someone is dying and in need of a kidney and there is no chance for that person to live unless he gets one. Legalizing selling organs will saves this person’s life because he or she would easily buy an organ and complete the rest of his life without any problems. But in the case of that kidney that is in need, other people could sell theirs without having any problems that would affect them. Humans have two kidneys and one kidney that wills saves other person live is going to kill this person or even hurts. Selling organs will saves lives in many different ways also. People are dying because they are illegally selling their organs in the black market or even selling there organs in insane prices to other people without knowing the consequences. So it is very important to legalize the sale of human organs to make it easier for everyone.

    The second is to stop people from selling organs illegally in the black market in very high prices. It is not unreasonable that the seriously ill be entitled to spend their own money on saving their own lives. It is preferable that some individuals receive organs, and survive, than none at all. But the important point is that only the wealthy can access the black market and survive. This happens because of the high price of human organs on the black market. In 2012, Medical Transcription released a pegged price list for every human organ on the black market. Like a heart for 1.7 billion rupiahs, a heart for 2.3 billion rupiahs, a kidney for 3.8 billion rupiahs and many more organs. This means that there is a difference between the dying poor and the dying rich.

    The third reason is with the legalization of the sale of human organs, there will be legitimate approval from donors and it will be mutually beneficial because the donor's family will get money. Besides that there needs to be a legal regulation from the government in terms of organ donation is very important because this will certainly reduce the level of illegal human organ sales or even the crime of human organ theft.

    The fourth reason is to reduce the crime of theft of human organs. with the legal market for the sale of human organs, all transactions will take place in that market and transparently because it can be accessed by everyone. in addition, the transaction process is carried out legally by the seller and buyer with valid documents as well. this will prevent human organ thieves from selling the stolen organs in the market because they do not have valid documents. thus, the crime rate of human organ theft will decrease and will certainly destroy the black market.

    And the last reason is a legitimate market in human organs would not be inconsistent with either public or private healthcare services. That means that everyone involved will benefit fairly, such as the donors, recipients and even doctors or medical personnel. Why should the donor of the organs, arguably the most important actor in any transplant, not also receive remuneration? The United States already tolerates markets for blood, semen, human eggs, and surrogate wombs. Is there a moral difference between a heart or a lung and an ovum? It is remarkable that a lifesaving treatment should apparently have no financial value.

    In conclusion, selling organs should be legalized because it will avoid the wrong mindset that often occurs in our environment. By legalizing the sale of human organs, all people will get the same rights to their lives.
