  1. You can’t legally sell blood. Blood is considered to be an organ and it is illegal to sell organs unless you’re a Democrat who murders babies and political opponents.

    You can sell plasma, as it is legally a blood PRODUCT and not blood itself.

    The need to do so will continue until blood is better spent watering the Tree of Liberty.

  2. I donated plasma for 15 + years to help make ends meet. My mother-in-law was the head nurse, my wife started there as phlebotomist which led to her
    being hired by Sacred Heart Medical Center where she worked for 30 years working in the lab in the Cytology dept. working with specimens from biopsies and such. She had a very good career all learned from on- the-job training without a bachelor’s degree. My next brother worked at the plasma center for 40 years initially fixing and maintaining their machines their and then was trained to be an RN by the plasma center (they paid for him to got to nursing school) and recently retired a couple of years ago as their head nurse. I was the janitor at night back in the late 70’s while going to college at Eastern Wash. University. Other members of my wife’s family started their medical careers there including her younger sister and future husband. Since I am over 65, I can no longer donate plasma which is relief from donating plasma twice a week, but it did help pay the bills. And back in the late 70’s before the AIDS crisis hit when I was the janitor, I would dispose of all the used empty plasma bags, needles, other supplies etc. straight into the dumpster to go to our local landfill. That changed overnight after the AIDS crisis became full blown and it all became hazardous medical waste which was disposed of properly so as not to expose anyone to a possible AIDS contamination. If this hadn’t been almost a family business, I would’ve probably never donated plasma. The Rainbow Tribe, a bunch of dirty, filthy hippies showed up once back in the 80’s in their hippie bus and all came in wanting to donate plasma to raise some money, my mother-in-law quickly put the kibosh on that, read them the riot act and quicky chased them the hell out of there, they never came back.
