@liche
people wouldn't be not allowed to reproduce
there would just be a tax for people with bad genes
and the list would get smaller, not bigger
because the bad genes would die out gradually

@marnix
i agree it's not currently practical
it's possible it could be in the future though
and i don't care about being 'humane'

@kenzu
yes

what will happen is
the internet is making people more shy and awkward than ever
all the shy kids who don't have friends and can't get laid
will shoot up their schools
columbine, vt, etc were just the beginning
soon there will be a school shooting every week
all the cool kids who have social skills and a lot of friends will get killed
and the lonely nerds will rule the world

i think this should be used when socialism is already established
so the wealth would be basically evenly distributed
so having children wouldn't be a privilege of 'the rich' because such a thing wouldn't exist

but even if this were used in capitalism
i don't think it would be that bad
yes it would be harder to afford for poor people
but then if their children got a disease, it would be hard for them to afford anyway
this is just moving the time when they have to pay from when they get the disease to when the child is born
so if it does discourage poor people from having children, it probably saves them money in the long run

do you support eugenics
i think it could be good

this is my idea for an ideal system of eugenics

no one would be forced to not have a child, even if they had 'bad' genes
but they would be taxed according to how much of a burden the child is likely to have on the economy

for example if because of the genes of the parents
the child has a 30% of getting disease x
and disease x costs 100 labor credits (lol) to cure
then there is a tax of 30 labor credits for them to have the child

and there would be taxes for other diseases and defects calculated in a similar way

and if the parents had 'good' genes
that would make the child likely to contribute to the economy
such as if the child would be more likely to be intelligent or something
(i don't know if intelligence can be predicted from genes, i'm just giving an example)
they would be subsidied for having that child
based on a similar kind of calculation


the benefits of this system would be
'bad' genes would be discouraged
'good' genes would be encouraged

it would be more gradual than plain eugenics (forbidding people to reproduce)
so it would be easier to detect unintended consequences early

it would fund health care
at least to cure the diseases that can be predicted by genetics
because money is being raised when the person that could have the disease is born
so he/she won't have to pay

also it seems the most fair way
because it's not really someone's fault if they were born likely to have a disease
so it's not fair to them to make them pay
and for other systems of free health care
the economic burden falls on everyone
while in this case it falls on the people whose fault it really is, the parents of the child

there are medical problems that have nothing to do with genetics of course
like damage from car crashes and stuff
which i think should still be free
and the burden of that would fall on everyone still

this idea has flaws such as

i don't think it's currently possible to predict very many things based on genes
technology and research will have to be more advanced for this to work well

it's possible that people will have children illegally or something
without the state knowing
i don't know how common it is for people to have more than one child in china

this idea is based on 'pigovian taxation'
i just applied it to eugenics

here's a poem by tao lin
called 'some of my happiest moments in life occur on aol instant messenger':

i will create a new category
on my instant messenger buddy list

i will call it
‘people i like who don’t like me back’

and i will move your screen name into that group
and i will invite you to my house and show you

and you will say, ‘if i didn’t like you why did i come over’
and you will look at my face
and i will have an honest answer for your question
i will tell you that you came over to be polite

and after a while you will go home
and you won’t call
and i won’t either
and after a while i won’t like you anymore
and after a while we’ll forget each other
and after a while you will be beautiful and alone inside of your coffin
and i’ll be cold and alone inside of my coffin

>You were not only depressed but you also thought you were to fat?

stalinism isnt a way of speking. its a political ideology.

kenzu said the ussr is a success. ergo stlainsitns.t

Im not aloud to see R rating movies. walle looks like its about dont leve the planet with alot of polutien becos robots wil take ovar.

blevd in wangerd partie-idealist becaus it says wangerd partys determine consciouesnes, not material conditions.

imperialism is a form of nationalism. he was a socialist- ergo national socialism.

if you dont funadment yourself then the post is spame. quit spameing. espaline why. say hitler is a nazi or somethign. my choice is kenzu because he craetes a cult of perosnality and makes idiots worship him.

kenzu is a stlainist idealist who creates a cult of personality around himslef, and whose devout fanatical worshipers includes you. If theres gona be a cult of personality why not one for a materialist? materialism is the truth.

if thers one for kenzu, why not for me? i should have one, right above his. i am qualified because i am the most active poster (when im not banned) and i am the only completely materialist person.

make your choice and espaline why.

Its fine if you delete my mattabesta account. I wont mind.

lets partie all night

Like usual, idealist propaganda. I stopped watching after 5 seconds.

i have to leve for orientation night at my new school which is three hours away in aurora. so i may not get enough posts today. this will help though. thats rely the only reson i made it.

alert alert. we have an adult apologist here. if it were me i wudda ran away to enviros house.

But I bet all the splinters are idalist.

yay tyrlops back!!!!!!!!

lenin was an idelist. atecking countries is nationalist. national socialiesm.

thats the reson i made this. i must have bin drinking becos i thought the ester bunnei was teh tooth farie.
