Eugenics is a set of beliefs and practices that are aimed at improving the genetic quality of a human population. It was first proposed around 400 B.C. by the philosopher Plato but the actual term "Eugenics" was coined by Francis Galton in 1883.
In recent society however, Eugenics has become closely linked with the National Socialist party and White Supremacists in general. Many war criminals at the Nuremburg trials attempted to defend their human rights abuse by comparing their programs to the ones of the USA.
The debate here is simple, do you believe that Eugenics will ever have a place in modern society?
