The problem is then getting a big enough stick to compell the world to go along. But you wpuldn't have to use it so that means you could go crazy on that end. Yeah, the one child policy worked out real well for China.

McFunkerson posted:Woah, so this is starting to go down a dangerous path here. I no longer intent to argue or support my own statements above. I get what you're saying above in that if my comments are taken seriously and at face value it's a slippery slope... But for the record, I wasn't trying to imply people should be targeted based or race, religion, sexual orientation, etc. Nor am I supporting slaughtering any number of innocent people. But like, hasn't that been the end result of every eugenics program? I mean yeah, I guess you could make a case that it could be beneficial is done objectively and without bias towards any ethnic or religious group, but good loving luck with that.

To be fair, it's not like there's only ever been one definition. And even things like pre-natal care were considered eugenics at one point. So it isn't like the field is completely tainted, but when you start to get into the territory of deciding which people should and should not get to reproduce, that gets real dicey real quick.

GORDON posted:"Humans are the only animal with an unemployment rate." So, do animals have 100% employment, or are they all unemployed? Because you're an idiot either way.
