| ” | The Merchant's Conflict of Interest It's hard to get a man to understand something, when his livelihood depends on his not understanding it. – Upton Sinclair |
Circumcision is a multi-million dollar industry. Profit is reaped not only from the practice of circumcision itself, but also from the sale of harvested foreskins, the sale of products derived from harvested foreskins, and the sale of circumcision specific tools and utensils.
Inhaltsverzeichnis
The procedure itself
1.3 million baby boys are circumcised a year in the United States alone. At a dollar per procedure, that is already $1,300,000 a year. The going rate for a circumcision procedure is approximately $300 American; multiplied by 1.3 million, that is approximately $390,000,000 a year that circumcision brings in based on the procedure alone.
Bollinger (2012) estimates that the total cost of non-therapeutic male circumcision, including hospital costs, repair of botched circumcisions, treatment of complications, and so on is more than $3 billion per year.[1]
Hilfswerkzeuge
Industries that depend on the practice of circumcision, particularly infant circumcision include makers of the circumstraint (the board to which a baby is strapped down to for the procedure), makers of circumcision clamps, manufacturers of circumcision kits, and other utensils used for circumcision.

Profit from harvested foreskins
Foreskins are sold to pharmaceutical companies for stem-cell research, the creation of synthetic skin, and the creation of consumer products. Since the 1980s, private hospitals have been involved in the business of supplying discarded foreskins to private bio-research laboratories and pharmaceutical companies who require human flesh as raw research material.[2] They also supply foreskins to transnational corporations. Dr. Tania Phillips, professor of dermatology at Boston University of Medicine, insisting foreskin gathering and cultivating is scientifically and technologically "very promising." [3]
Corporate benefactors
The following transnational corporations reap corporate profits from the sale of marketable products made from harvested human foreskins:
- Advanced Tissue Sciences (ATS) [4]
- Organogenesis[5]
- BioSurface Technology[6]
- Genzyme
- Ortec International
- LifeCell Corporation (Nasdaq:LIFC)
- SkinMedica
FDA approved products
The following products fashioned from harvested foreskins were approved by the FDA for marketing:
Medicaid pays for it
While 18 states have stopped paying for it, 32 states pay for circumcision. Doctors may be driven to promote circumcision if they get a free stipend from the state.
The AAP 2012 Policy Statement on Circumcision states that "Although health benefits are not great enough to recommend routine circumcision for all male newborns, the benefits of circumcision are sufficient to justify access to this procedure for families choosing it and to warrant third-party payment for circumcision of male newborns. It is important that clinicians routinely inform parents of the health benefits and risks of male newborn circumcision in an unbiased and accurate manner." and "The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists has endorsed this statement."[7] Many new born circumcisions are performed by Obstetricians.
Zuschüsse von Interessengruppen für die Beschneidung
Es gibt Interessengruppen für die Beschneidung, die Ärzten und Forschern Zuschüsse gewähren, um die Beschneidung zu "untersuchen" und zu fördern. Zu den Organisationen, die dies tun, gehört die Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Im Jahr 2009 gewährte die Schusterman Family Foundation dem Mohel und professionellen Säuglingsbeschneider Neil Pollock ein Stipendium zur Förderung der Beschneidung von Säuglingen in Ruanda,[8] insbesondere der Mogen-Technik, im Namen der HIV-Prävention.
