The Daily Mail reports on this outrageous example of reducing human life to the status of a commodity.  Excerpt:

Women are being given cut-price fertility treatment if they donate eggs for controversial cloning research.

 

Those taking part in the taxpayer-funded scheme receive half-price IVF treatment in return for giving half their eggs to scientists working on human cloning.

Count AdvanceUSA as one of the “critics” mentioned below as we share these concerns.

But critics say it reduces the sanctity of human life to nothing more than the barter of body parts - and accused the researchers of taking advantage of women when they are at their most vulnerable.

Here are the two key problems with paying women for their eggs:

  1. the cheapening/destruction of human life
  2. the exploitation of women (dangerous procedures for benefits)
