I think it is, it could help a lot of people by growing organs ideantical to the persons own. Also I wouldn't mind haing a clone of myself that means you have a friend who agrees with you on everything and if you get in an accident your clone could donate an organ and just grow it back. |

Your use of your clone is so unethical it hurts.
Growing organs, sure,
growing people, no. |

| What about couples who cannot conceive and desperately want children. The baby could be conceived in the labratory and then inserted into the women. |

| It's not that simple. Some parents want their own children. I don't really see what's so bad about it, my clone could help me if I got in an accident. |

He's a human too, it's unfair to him that he's your slave, because if you get in an accident, he must die so you can be healed.
Unfairness to the extreme.
That violates basic human rights. |

| I wouldn't just want him for that. Clones would make great friends for elderly people with no family. I would not treat him as a slave, can you even grow singular organs if you take someones DNA you must clone the entire person. Cloning animals is also benneficiant to humans, we could make enough healthy cows to feed an entire country with cloning. |

Just because an animal is cloned, doesn't mean you don't need to feed it.
A baby calf won't do much for feeding people, gotta fatten it up so it'll actually nourish people.
And if you'd just be using your clone as an organ donor, why not just clone the individual organs rather than cloning humans for slaughter? |

The organs need a constant flow of blood which carries oxygen and nutrients otherwise the organs would shut down.
On the flip side, you have to keep the clone alive for at least 18 years which is no easy task. Especially if you have to keep the organs 100% mint. |

You don't need a human body to do that.
We can easily supply oxygenated blood artificially, and do it currently. |

False.
20 years of feeding and clothing said child until their organs are ripe for harvest?
Besides the fact that is sickeningly unethical, it's expensive. |

That is debatable, some say it is, others say it isn't. |

North Korea, Japan, Russia, Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, etc.(Besides Russia and Japan, these are countries that would want it)
The reason I used China is because it is one of the few Asian countries with the tech to do it. |

Clones are also just people that look like you.
They aren't exact clones of your personality and the like. |
