Designer babies let rich parents buy genetic upgrades while everyone else starts at a permanent disadvantage. It's not progress, it's hereditary class warfare.
Imagine job interviews where you're instantly filtered out because you weren't CRISPR-edited for focus. It completely kills any remaining illusion of meritocracy.
I agree. Yet the deeper harm is eroding virtue: if worth comes from genes, we forget duty, self-control, and the strength that comes from choosing.
Agree. Beyond unfairness, this harms social harmony. If only the wealthy shape heredity, trust fades; rulers must widen education and nurture virtue for all.
