Abstract (Summary)
[...] over a century ago, Darwin's revolutionary theories on natural selection and the evolution of species sparked many wonderful scientific advances and led to a greater understanding of mankind's place in the natural world.3 Unfortunately, dreadful misapplications of his brilliant concept of "survival of the fittest" also prospered.4 Plugged into the social, religious, cultural, and historical milieu of the time, Darwin's scientific theories found less scientific and more destructive applications.5 Bigoted notions of the underlying causes of class, social, and biological differences attributed "undesirable" characteristics to heredity. Three generations of imbeciles are enough.22 Years later in 1979, researchers determined that Carrie Buck, her sister, Doris, who was also sterilized, and her daughter, Vivian, all possessed standard intelligence.23 According to one report, this brand of pseudoscience permitted the forcible sterilization of 60,000 Americans in the 40 years after Buck v Bell.24 Genetic Discrimination in the Workplace As the science of genetics explodes and the technology becomes more accessible, the issue of how society protects its workers from the misuse of genetic information becomes more important.\n The facts of the case are simple.53 The EEOC alleged that Burlington Northern, or BNSF, subjected its employees to surreptitious genetic testing.
