Analysis of “Organ Sales Will Save Lives” English 112 11:30-12:45 9/19/2012 Analysis of “Organ Sales Will Save Lives” Thousands of people die every year from a tragic disease known as end-stage renal failure. However, these deaths could be easily prevented with the legalization of kidney sales for transplant. Countless people around the world are either desperate to sell or buy a kidney, yet restrictions on such transactions have caused the black market organ trade to thrive. Restraints on kidney sales not only promotes risky conditions in which to purchase one, but cheats the seller out of due compensation if it were legal. 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.
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.
The idea was to protect the owners of companies from lawsuits. Actually the rich saw it as a way to lower their taxes, fool the uneducated, and to be irresponsible for their cheating and lies. Wal-Mart, which started out selling all American made products, soon started selling products made in sweatshops in foreign counties and we the people did not care and we scooped up the bargains. Now, these Super Corporations, who answer only to the board members and owners, cut the employees pay, use part timers to avoid benefits and count their billions while families are starving. We the people allowed these corporations to get the upper
healthcare system is expensive. Politicians and insurance companies claim that America has the best healthcare system in the world but the fact is that 42.6 million people in the U.S. currently are without health insurance, which slaps these blind fools in the face who think that American healthcare is the best out there (Maine). How can US citizens rely on such a system of healthcare? In 1998 the infant mortality rate in the U.S was 7.2 infant deaths per 1,000 live births (Maine). Although this number is pretty low, US is still ranked highest among countries based on infant mortality rates within the OECD countries.

According to Sicko, almost fifty million Americans are uninsured while the remainders, who are covered, are often victims of insurance company fraud and red tape. Interviews are conducted with people who thought they had adequate coverage but were denied care. Former employees of insurance companies describe cost-cutting initiatives that give bonuses to insurance company physicians and others to find reasons for the company to avoid meeting the cost of medically necessary treatments for policyholders, and thus increase company profitability.

Having large amounts of money is not a purpose in that of itself, because you have done absolutely nothing with it. Having large wealth is merely another possession, and possessions don’t normally contain a purpose. Using the wealth you have accumulated to bring your family comfortability and financial security for generations is a purpose. One may argue that obtaining large amounts of material items, and living a luxurious lifestyle is a purpose, but honestly, who is your purpose benefitting? You don’t have to save the world to be a success, but if you only benefit yourself, who are you a success
Jason Baker Eng-11-10 July, 29, 2010 Melissa Byrd Exam, Final Essay Welfare; The falling of America. Welfare once began as a way to save the over burdened American from complete and total loss of everything they had worked so hard to acquire or accomplish, but it has now become the largest and misused form of government support that now only serves to make people more dependent, and in turn damages society morally as a whole. Welfare has thus far in our history as a country only bred laziness. First, people on welfare; for the most part, do not have to work. All the government requires of people on welfare is to fill out a job application on a regular basis and then that person will be eligible to receive benefits.
