Am I not mistaken that in the US it's already common to get paid for blood donations? (Here, in Poland, you only got a couple bars of chocolate for it). So, people in the US are already ok with selling their flesh (at least the part that does it for money, and not to help others).

My understanding is that it in the US, it is common to be paid for blood plasma, but highly uncommon (I've never heard of it happening) to be paid for blood.
