Interesting that Paul would be at that place
Anyone familiar with the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008?
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]The bill was designed to prevent insurance companies and employers from gathering information on a person's DNA, that could then be used for discriminatory purposes for schools, insurance, work, etc... To make a long story short, the bill was designed to prevent GATTACA from happening...and naturally, I feel that any sensible person would like to prevent this, thus allow the bill to be passed, as all the politician's supported the bill.
...but the only politician that tried to block it was Ron Paul. I know why he did it, but this again is one of the reasons why I'm not a libertarian.
