Allow paying organ donors (or their estates), and shortages will be eliminated or drastically reduced. Economics 101.

You said "paying donors," but I gather you mean paying recipients. Economics 101? Sure, Satanomics.

Allow paying recipients and you've created a market. Economics 101.

There is also the effect of the supply-side to be considered in stimulating demand.

That is why some arenas are to be protected from what are normally considered the principles of "Economics 101."

That is why the principles of production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services (otherwise known as "economics") is to be subject to moral restraints or else will foster the production, distribution, and consumption what should never be.

I mean the donors would be paid.

Yes, that's the general idea. Currently there is a price ceiling of zero, which inevitably results in shortages. And in this case, shortages equal death.
