2.1.2.1. DNA and Gene-Editing you can make sure that things are not passed down. A difference between doing it yourself, whereas eugenics is done through sex.
2.1.3. The means are different, but the ends are the same.
2.1.4. POWER
2.1.4.1. Who has power--if everyone has the opportunity to gene-editing then awesome, but if it is forced upon people it can be really bad
2.1.4.2. Good or bad, threw sex, if you are passing down a gene then you are doing a great thing because folks do not want disabilities, etc. Looking at the past, you were not trying to help the people, but you were trying to help themselves. It depends on the way you look at it, it depends who has the power.
2.1.4.3. If it accessible to folks that have the cultural capital to have designer babies then you create a wider divide within the social class system. People in the upper class would have more advantages and people in the working class would have more disadvantages.
