Body parts to the highest bidder

Bizarre story I came across in the Times Online, about Spanish people, struggling in the recession, offering their kidneys for sale to make ends meet.

Completely illegal of course, but the seller, and buyer (usually from another European country) meet and do the deal, and er, extraction, in 3rd independent country where they can get a doctor to do the deed.

It is of course a sorry state of affairs, and it is the extreme stories that catch the eye

But despite stories of Government help and negotiating with the banks in Spain, my experience for people that are struggling with their mortgage payments, is that the banks are in a state of panic and are coming down on the heavy side of unreasonable

Thanks for reading
