Trafficked organs constitute up to 10 percent of organ transplants worldwide, study says.
A kidney can range from $50,000 to $120,000 ; a kidney can be sold for up to $100,000 .
“It is the Canadian cull’ — a systematic elimination of the weak, sick, old, and vulnerable via the state euthanasia program called MAID .”.
