>> I'm an adult, if I want the money isn't it strictly better than I have the freedom to cash in on my human resources [by selling my kidney]? > Yes. By this logic, slavery should be legal, because people should have the freedom to sell themselves into it (for instance, to purchase medical care for a loved one).

Yes. But that wouldn't be slavery really because you are working for a predetermined rate.

I literally said the person would be selling themselves into slavery, which means becoming chattel property with no rights of any kind. That's nothing like a non-slave "working for a predetermined rate," because those workers still have rights since they're not property.
