USA, where abortion is effectively illegal. ~~Went~~ Why can't adoption be a solution?

That's an incredibly expensive bad idea. Dialysis will likely be necessary and the beating heart corpse just kind of slowly breaks down over time with multi system organ failure. 9 months would require a heroic effort at life support. Makes sense it was suggested by a philosopher. She also suggested using male bodies as incubators. Might as well use pigs if you're going that far. Humerous that the philosopher that suggested it was a woman though.

It is a good thought experiment to gauge where people stand on brain death and personhood too I guess. I obviously think a body with a brain that is dead to the stem is just a corpse. That brain will actually end up shriveling up and drooping because it is actively necrotizing.

In reality, I also agree with the premise that actual surrogacy is worse. An economic trade where someone rich buys someone else's health is no different than buying a kidney. So that point they made is absolutely not wrong. Surrogacy should be abolished, though this obviously has no chance of taking it's place.

One step closer to a Brave New World

id love to keep it "boring"

the "interesting" parts of a dystopia arent usually very healthy for us...

Suggest like 2 of the most evil doctors you could find so that, actually, YOU could suggest it, The Telegraph

IMO

We don't need more people in the world right now. We should be concentrating on figuring out how to agree on having and applying the best support for the ones we already have first.

I say sex work to help pay for health care.

This has very little to do with what our actual dystopia will do. I mean, I thought that this was by someone who was probably thinking of the families that lost someone to a coma and had been looking for grandchildren, but no, they are seriously suggesting this simply because of its utility.. Even so, all hail the new future tech bro hivemind and all, but still, not very likely. If it is something that is capable of being truly considered by societies, it will also be capable of considering worse things over it.

[Berlusconi] described Englaro as somebody who could even "bear a child and who is in a vegetative state that could change."

So the Tleilaxu are real ??
