The organ market is legal in Iran, and there are indeed enough for everyone, including some people from other countries who came there just for the organs.
At least, for kidneys and stuff. I’m not even sure if you’re allowed to sell stuff like your heart when you die there. From what I understand, even if you mandated everyone give away their heart, there still wouldn’t be enough since it’s rarely an option. In those cases, I suspect there will still be a significant increase. Also, it makes it so that people have more of an incentive to work hard so that they can afford health insurance that will pay for those organs. If you’re going to have inequality anyway, you might as well take advantage of it.
How much do you expect markets to increase the supply of organs? You seem to be assuming there’ll be enough for everyone.
