It is illegal in the United States to pay for a transplant organ, and doctors cannot perform a transplant operation unless the patient is at the top of the official list. However, some wealthy people in need of a kidney transplant go overseas to other countries where the laws are not enforced strictly.

Why does the United States prohibit the sale of organs when other countries look the other way?
