As pointed out in the article, that would definitely help but wouldn't be sufficient.

Again, the proposed system would be non-exploitative. It would not incentivize the poor and desperate to donate.

Say it with me

Calling a system nonexploitative

DOES NOT MAKE IT NON EXPLOITATIVE

Incentivizing people starving and homeless to have their ORGANS Taken in exchange for MONEY FOR FOOD AND RENT

is, and I cannot stress this enough

EXPLOITATIVE

We have a system, capitalism, where some people are poor or homeless or a thousand other situations where these people are faced with the options of do crime or starve to death, with this now that option is do crime, starve to death, or sell your organs! Yaaay we solved poverty!!!!!

Yo, cool your jets. I think we're talking past each other. The system in question isn't going to give any money to homeless people even if they donate their kidney. That's what I mean by non-exploitative.
