Sorry to say but this isnt a new thing! Some countries it isnt uncommon for people to sell their organs (one kidney, part of a liver, etc). In the US woman can get paid to "donate" their eggs for $10,000. Low income areas often have plasma donation centers too. When I was in college I had alot of friends who did this for beer or rent money. I havent seen the show, but the idea behind it is something that has been going on for years. I have heard of people selling their own children, so I guess this isnt all that far-fetched. Definately terrible that people feel they have to go to these extremes to support their families. I am betting they dont get all that much money out of it, that they are forced into it and some head of the company is making the profits.
