    d. shortage may be eliminated

    Explanation:

    These days there are over one hundred thousand persons waiting for a new kidney. In addition to that there are recipients waiting five to ten years for a new organ. If the government were to open a free market on an organ such as this is will end up being counter productive unless there are established guidelines present. Firstly, there will be no more shortage of organs but this will come from persons that would donate for money or from those that are forcibly coerced to remove their organ. Society may not remain unchanged since the already existing kidnapping for organ harvest trade could be more rampant. Lastly, this idea with proper guidelines could seem feasible but it is not worth public safety on a whole.
