I am currently residing in the US on a E2 Treaty Trader Visa. Is it permitted for me to donate my blood plasma and receive compensation repeatedly?

When does an activity begin to look like work? I believe that it would be very difficult to characterize giving blood as some type of work. There is the compensation angle, but what is it for? Self-employed individuals perform some activity for compensation such as artists or consultants. When you are doing is basically a passive activity. Under the circumstances, I am of the opinion that this should not be labeled as unauthorized employment.
