But it's already illegal to sell organs and yet this harvesting still happens. Anything people will pay enough for to push providers past the fear of getting caught is going to generate a black market. If the money received by the organ registry on a highest-bidder basis were earmarked exclusively to research on synthetic alternatives, I believe would probably get to a better world faster than the current state of affairs.
