Right now, today, people have to sell their organs to make ends, but they can't, so they fail to make ends meet. Your argument amounts to rejecting marginal improvement because it's still not good enough.
- Blackthorn 2y agoNo, the argument is that there is no "marginal improvement", it's that it's a net negative for society to have poor people need to sell their kidneys to make ends meet.
