dont get me wrong, im all for preventative measures... im just not sure how it should be done... i dont like the idea of big government getting that far into my head... to do this you would have to create an agency to do the actual work and then on top of that you would need a sh!tload of oversight... the government already has enough control over our lives as it is...
if the only answer was involuntary genetic screens, i'd rather just take my chances... like we've been doing for the last 100,000 years... so far we havent done so bad...
