I'd support it, if it was done correctly. I don't mean to sound inhumane, but we really SHOULD keep survival of the fittest going. I mean we have a lot of people with so many health issues now through genetics. It's a very touchy subject though so it stays a taboo for the most part.

Oh wow, this is even a million times worse. Please don't tell me you really support this idea.

The only reason we are what we are as human being is because of survival of the fittest. How is that a bad idea? To make a quick repost:

If you have a cheetah that runs 20mph instead of 60, it would die off and have a very small chance of reproducing. If it does reproduce then its children would probably die off. The point is, any cheetah that runs 20mph instead of 60 is doomed. The 20mph cheetahs would most certainly would not be outnumbering the 60mph runners and they certainly wouldn't be breeding more than the 60mph ones either.

 

Except we don't live in that type of world anymore.

Right now, we have short people, weak people, slow people, people with disabilities, etc. They all survive perfectly well in this world because we don't live in a world where survival of the fittest applies in a kind of animalistic way. I mean, what if the government decided that you should die because you contain a bad genetic? You'd change your tune pretty quickly, I would think.
