    The thing is, the monetary incentive is necessary because there are not enough people donating - plasma, blood, whatever. So if that’s what’s needed to get people to donate (or whatever else word you want to use), then that’s fine in my books. Both sides get something.

    I get the idea of wanting it to be on donation-basis only, but people don’t donate for free as often as when they do. Because society is inherently selfish and doesn’t care for the needs of others.

    Again, the service the companies provide is directly beneficial to society. Yes, big pharma is a thing and medicine should be free. But what’s not how things work. So what’s the problem?

      The for profit is why people aren’t donating. Sell if you want these locations are why I stopped and I was a donator.

      I will give but I won’t sell. Not for this.
