The sad fact is there are not enough livers to go around...

There would be if people were allowed to sell them. Why is everyone in the entire transplant process paid, except the donor (or donor's estate?)

Because it would create a black market. I don’t think you are allowed to buy an organ for transplant in this country. I think it’s different in Asia.
