The+Future+for+DNA



=The Big Question:=

What if the government one day wants to create a large database of every individual's DNA? Would you agree to it? Why or why not?

Even the US Armed Services have initiated a program to collect the DNA fingerprints of all its personnel. This would help them identify bodies at battle scenes. In fact, this type of technology is far superior to checking dental records or dogtags.
 * Here's what's currently going on:**

But what about the general public?

Is it against our privacy rights for the government to keep a record of our DNA? This would not only give the government our identity but also our genetic history - who we're related to, predisposition to diseases, etc.

What about the movie Gataica? Will there be a day where individuals will be classified by their DNA? Will individuals deemed as violent or problematic not be allowed to function with the rest of society?
