+1. Plasma is a money business where blood is not. If people were paid to donate blood I bet there wouldn't be as much of a shortage. It isn't unethical in my mind because plasma is necessary for many things and paying for it is a more reliable way to get it than relying on donations
I have never sold plasma but I may start pretty soon. I know many people that do. They are much more lenient than they are for blood donations. Also, I had a friend that sold plasma regularly because they do STD screenings for you.
