- mistrial9 3y agocompletely agree, and it was not only Jewish people that were on that list right?
- justrealist 3y agoI will bet you $10,000 that it will be illegal to tier health insurance on your genetics in 5 years, 10 years, or whatever timeframe you want. If you want to take that bet, let me know and I will send you my contact info.

Genetic data will definitely be used to limit freedom of movement somewhere on Earth in the next 25 years.
