Um, given the greed and selfishness of mankind (I except any given
individual) it seems to me that the next step after voluntary
organ banks is the use of condemned criminals for organs, then
as we run short, the use of minor criminals for organs, etc.

I think the story of Gil the Arm (Sorry, Mr. Niven) could be prophetic.

I DO think that there should be organ banks, but they shouldn't be
financially oriented, and they should be carefully controlled.
I can see organlegging starting tomorrow...!
