Should Organ Buy/Sell be legalized?

I recently heard that in China the government allows legally selling organs as long as there's document to prove that it came from someone who died already. Around 97% of the organ came from death penalty prisoners. Should Organ selling be legalized? I can see how it might put a hold on blackmarket trading and provide more organs for the population. However, i feel negatively towards actually companies selling organs. I mean, that's commoditising organs...almost like the medicines these day. Until one day half of the population can't afford to buy organs for a transplant. Though, on second thought...this might open up more research into stem cells to mass produce organs....then again. I dont see that happening soon. What do you think?

I myself think it should not be legalized, it would cause many problems, there are some psychos who would kill to get the organs to sell them. There are many more problems whuch it would cause Happy mylotting The one
