@pedm problem w/ paying token amount for blood is that it makes ppl feel both selfish and patronized. Organ market prices wouldn't be token.6:09 AM Jun 28th from Tweetie in reply to pedm
@pedm red cross didn't pay market rates for blood. In a true market, price would equalize - for blood or organs. Look at Iran. No shortage.6:05 AM Jun 28th from Tweetie in reply to pedm
