DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE: Trade-offs in Repugnant Transactions: A Choice Experiment (with Julio Elia
 s and Mario Macis)\n\n\n \nAbstract:\n Societies prohibit many transactions
  considered morally repugnant, although potentially efficiency-enhancing. W
 e conduct an online choice experiment to characterize preferences for the m
 orality and efficiency of payments to kidney donors. The survey elicits opi
 nions on several moral issues about allowing payments, shows different hypo
 thetical supply effects of compensating donors, and asks respondents to exp
 ress their support for different types of kidney procurement and allocation
  systems that would include compensation. Although choices are based on hyp
 otheticals, we design the survey to include elements of consequentiality an
 d incentive compatibility. Through this experiment we are able to assess wh
 ether cost-benefit considerations affect the acceptance of morally controve
 rsial transactions. The analysis also provides insights to policymakers abo
 ut the role of empirical evidence about the effects of compensation for kid
 ney donors in informing the public debate.\n
