In her essay “Organ Sales Will Save Lives”, Joanna Mackay explains how legalizing kidney sales would be beneficial in more ways than one; saving the lives of patients willing to buy kidneys, and with legal compensation, helping to end poverty in the countries of those willing to sell. In her essay, Mackay explains that even though there are nearly 350,000 people suffering from end-stage renal disease, an almost always-fatal disease, treatment options are limited exclusively to transplant and dialysis. Though effective, dialysis is an expensive and painful process, making the patient dependent on a machine for the rest of their life. Transplant, however, is far more successful; new equipment and anti-rejection treatments make it an incredibly safe and effective procedure. When a matching donor can’t be found within immediate family members, patients must wait for a kidney from deceased donors, such as old age or accident victims.

But not all the pageants have this requirement. Beauty pageants are one of the fastest growing businesses in America grossing over 5 million dollars. The parents invest so much money into a pageant that they have to hire a make-up artist, hair stylist, sing or dance lessons, lodging to pageant locations, entry fees, the different outfits, etc. Its mind boggling that the prize money is less than the preparation for these pageants. On a September issue of People magazine shows a transformation of a normal little girl into one the contestants for a pageant, the total cost was $3,703 for wiglet, dress, and to boots that took 3 hours to complete.
Jersey Shore Salary Big hair poofs, fake tans, a couple of big egos, and no respect, welcome to the Jersey Shore house. While the rest of America is out working hard to earn their money to afford the necessities, there are some people who think that paying millions of dollars to eight people who do nothing but set a bad example seems to be a smart idea. Anyone with cable television can watch MTV and their reality show Jersey Shore. Sami Sweetheart, Nicole, Mike, Pauly, Ronnie, Vinny, Jenni, and Dena are the members of this show. While Jersey shore may be an entertaining show, they are overpaid to just party and being bad influences.
But hoping to get a kidney on time isn’t easy for anyone; in the year 2000, 2583 Americans died while waiting for a kidney transplant showing how hard it is to get a kidney. The reason the number of kidneys available is small is because the sales of organs has been banned in almost every country. Due to the ban of organ sales and the long wait for an organ (kidney), some people have turned to an alternative solution. This solution is purchasing kidneys from a black market which cost about $150,000 favoring the rich over the poor and good about it is that there are no questions asked. Illegal kidney trade is reliable because kidneys gotten from black markets come from a living donor which could last a person a lifetime compared to an organ from a cadaver which is estimated to function for about ten years.
I was so excited because it was my first real job, and I had a friend from school that worked there also, her name’s Jessiee. Jessiee’s co-workers called her “hipster”, for good reason. She couldn’t have weighed over 100 pounds and dyed her hair an unhealthy amount of times a month. When she wasn’t working she had plugs in her ears and many piercings. I’ve went to school with her since we were in the seventh grade.

One fashion magazine predicted that the bobbed hairstyle would not last very long, but it did and they were forced to show more bobbed hairstyles in their magazine. The cosmetic industry made lots of money as well because of all of the products they were pushing to women. By 1929, some 2,500 different perfume brands were created along with 1,500 face creams.
