Science in the grip of governments and corporations serves the interests of money and power, not truth. It has become a menace to society. Eugenics was wrong not because it was unscientific (we apply eugenic standards to animal breeding successfully) but because human beings are not animals and cannot be ethically sterilized at the whim of the state for any reason, eugenic or otherwise.
Agreed!
