That's a tad selfish.

I am very familiar with the industry. I am telling you that you are being taken advantage of to benefit a for-profit company that your presumably non-profit blood banks sell your donations to.

It's one thing when that's to defray their quite high cost of operating, and they're selling plasma that would otherwise be wasted.

It's another thing when they have you coming in just to con you out of plasma.
