In what way would genetics have a huge influence on future impact? That sounds like eugenics.
- tharne 6y agoHow is it "like eugenics" to state that children inherit genes from their parents, and are often similar in many ways to their parents? That just sounds like biology. It's not helpful to trivialize terms like "eugenics".
- solosoyokaze 6y agoGenetics have no predictive power on future impact to society. Take one of those wealthy children and put them in an orphanage, see if they do the same as their siblings.
- tubesebut 6y ago> Take one of those wealthy children and put them in an orphanage, see if they do the same as their siblings. Or better yet, don't permit them to be born in the first place. Hereditary wealth should have no place in our society. It's time to sterilize the rich, and also purge those who don't contribute to the public good.
