That’s not really “eugenics” as I understand the term but whatever.
Thats not really true.
The US is an exception but generally, the cost of therapies becomes commercially viable with the passage of time.
For example, our 2 year old daughter just had her DNA profiled because she has a few manageable, yet ongoing developmental deficiencies. Her DNA markers will guide her treatment.
When I was a child this type of treatment was sci-fi, and when it was invented you could have said “by rich for rich” or whatever.
WDYM “for eugenics purposes”?
I have very, very shallow tastes in TV.
Honestly, I like Voyager better than TNG and DS9 just because the image quality is better. Early TNG is old enough to be jarring.
Totally understand this might be a cultural deficiency of mine but that’s the honest truth.
