Only read the four sellable 'parts' which didn't require special other commitments to read.
(?) Are there really people out there who don't know that they can sell their blood, plasma, sperm, or eggs? There are generations of bums who sold their own blood to buy their booze; within the last ~ 40 or so years a lot of frat boys and other budget strapped young guys sold their jizz for beer money.
Indian women (and I mean South Asian type Indians) have sold their hair for decades now as the hair extensions which primarily black women, but also some white women use (and pay dearly for).
Did the article list any non-regenerative bodily tissues that could be legally sold?

Meh. It’s a free article and you get what you pay for in the end. I only posted because I think there is a very large market out there for Keowee’s Exta MAGA Baby Batter. He could make a lot of money and provide a much needed service.

By that logic, why are any drugs illegal?

Bigger question, can only women use heroin legally, or do men have the same right to their bodies? Biden just outlawed Juul. And when they passed covid relief, with Trump, they outlawed the purchase of tobacco for anyone between 18 and 21. So is there an age when your body becomes your right, or a gender, or both? Is it 21 now? Can 18-21yo women still buy tobacco products? Why is marihuana legal in some states, but illegal in others, but is federally illegal? Cocaine is illegal in every state, but it's also prosecuted under federal laws, but the same federal laws don't apply to pot, in certain states, but are enforced in others? What about the people in jail for pot, think it's several hundred thousand or more?
Here's a list of things states should decide: Drug laws Tobacco laws Driving laws Alcohol laws Environmental laws Workplace laws Abortion Education healthcare pandemic response marriage laws

I'm beginning to wonder ... maybe there is something wrong with our legal system?
Nah, can't be. Our legislators at the national and state level have our best interests at heart, so they wouldn't write any stupid or illegal laws.

The problem there is you are effectively forcing Person A to serve as an unwilling incubator for Person B...if indeed that even is a person in those early stages. (We can argue about that too, the general evangelical view is that something inherently magical happens at "conception"...I personally think the trip to personhood is more a process as consciousness awakens and I have no personal clue where that starts and unlike the evangelicals I won't even pretend I know.)
Historically that just plain doesn't work well. The unwilling incubator tends to have her own idea about those things.
I don't like abortion much. But the bottom line is that the incubator ultimately decides, one way or another, and always will, and trying to force her is unproductive, oppressive, and pointless...and ultimately isn't going to work in a democracy where that incubator also has a vote.

Q - I don't necessarily disagree with your sentiments but

the graphic is useful in making the point that this issue not so simple as the soundbite slogan "my body my choice". By all accounts the fetus is a completely separate human being with its very own DNA. If a woman has complete autonomy over their body - doesn't a living unborn child (which is definitively a human being) also have autonomy over it's body with a right to life and to not be killed through an intentional abortion procedure?
I do think the unwilling incubator argument has some merit but at the same time (outside of cases of incest and rape) pregnant women are willing participants in the activity that caused the pregnancy. If a woman is a willing participant in an act they know can potentially result in the creation of another human being - don't they have a responsibility to the new life created from their willing participation? To me these are not easy questions to answer but I do have problems with the pro-choice movements view of abortion procedures as simply another form of birth control that treats the life created as of no consequence or value.
For the longest time I was somewhat amenable to the pro-choice position of "safe, legal, and rare" for abortion. Unfortunately, the pro-choice movement moved away from that standard and has adopted an ever growing, in our face/abortion pride kind of perversion while pushing abortion on demand (no restrictions) up to the moment of birth. In many cases I find the pro-choice positions to be utterly disgusting and morally bankrupt.
Today I am way more amenable to the pro-life position due to my spiritual growth as a Christian (I do believe that God is the author of life) and having explored what happens during a medical abortion. The videos by Dr. Anthony Levatino (a former abortion provider) that describe all the different abortion procedures in some detail is enough to turn your stomach. I would not wish those procedures to be performed on a dog much less a human being.
The expression "A good compromise leaves everyone unhappy" comes to mind on the abortion issue. At some point I believe that most States will adopt some form of legal abortions but with restrictions (i.e. rape, incest, no abortions after 15 weeks etc...).

#### y'all trying to force me to take some ######## vaccine.
And #### the government thinking they can tell chicks what to do.
I would agree with you here, but I remember you riding big pharma #### to get everyone to take the vaxx.
