    I like the idea of it, but realistically, it would be used as an excuse to exterminate people (as it once was). It'd also lead to a genetic hierarchy.

    Good point. However, I am worried that it may become a necessity in the coming generation. With studies continuously showing an iq gap between races and the increasing plausibility of genetic engineering, it may not be possible to avoid the issue anymore. If scientists develop ways to weed out genetic diseases, a topic which commands large research sums, the next logical step will be the weeding out of other undesirable genes. If it comes to that, it would be better to confront the issue. But how?
