| Popis: |
Imagine that a member of your family faced sure death unless a body part could be found and quickly transplanted. Your doctor and the hospital have the know-how to perform the procedure but lack the human raw materials with which to do the job. To what lengths would you be able to go to obtain the body part? And, since the supply is usually smaller than the demand, who should decide who gets the human organ and on what basis? Should a free market be allowed? Or, should a government bureaucracy make the decision? Is this a matter requiring a national standard that justifies preemption by the federal government? Or, is it a matter of state’s rights that fits neatly under the Supreme Court’s recent Federalism cases? What about “equity” and ability to pay? Should body parts be provided regardless of wealth? This article examines those questions and concludes that the free market is the most just and beneficial system possible. |
