There is no supply bottleneck, except the one created by government

This intrigues me, there are more people dying and willing to donate organs than there are people needing organs? No sarcasm intended I honestly didn't know this was the case.

Not quite. There are more people dying who would have been willing to sell the rights to their organs in the event of their deaths had they been allowed to. Whether this exceeds the number of people who actually need organs in the same time period is irrelevent. I suppose you could call it a "supply bottleneck", but it certainly the case that it is a much smaller bottleneck than the one created by government by simply outlawing the market.
