I cannot believe the bigotry and ignorance some of these comments exhibit. How can anyone blame a young woman whose mother left her to raise her sisters alone with few prospects and little control for trying to do so with dignity? How can you fault people with limited resources for trying to keep a loved one alive? How can you blame someone living on the edge who is trying to get it together for a streak of hard luck that knocks them back down? Would the barter of organs go away if it weren’t legal? No - as seen in the film, if you can’t get help legally, you’ll look for what you want on the black market and pay even more for it than you would if it were legal. At least an effort, however shocking it seems, is being made to ensure that not only the wealthy can live. Would anyone sell their blood, their organs, or their body if they didn’t need the money? No. While there are some things that many people will do for free because risk is minimal (blood donors), even for those low risk things, not enough do it for free so we have clinics where we pay people to come in too many times for their health because they need the money. The poor everywhere have always and will always be on the short end when it comes to who will donate a kidney, carry a gun to war, clothe themselves in toxic materials, or eat what others won’t. Let’s hope for some compassion and enough sense to not judge others when we don’t understand their circumstances, culture or beliefs. Too bad we’ll never evolve to the point where everyone will live and let live without trying to coerce others to bend their views at the expense of the poor. I blame the politicians, here - there - anywhere. Until they back down and leave each other be, policies that keep people poor and at the mercy of more conservative members of their society will not go away. When times are good anywhere, people tend to be freer in spirit and more tolerant. The luxury of tolerance evaporates whenever one part of a society is set upon another due to economic pressures or other constraints. The people of one country aren’t any more evil than another - it’s the failed leadership of all countries that allows this sort of thing to continue.
