      Scientifically probably not. But lets say in the next 5 years we can pinpoint diseases that were terminal. Counting out the government or anyone else besides loved ones or at least just the parents?

        Would you trust your government to fairly and equitably decide who gets such treatments?

        The scientific, societal, and economic aspects of eugenics are inextricable.

          No not the government because it is dumb as hell but if parents had the option to have a gurantee their child will outlive them then it should be up to them and them alone.
