Attack of the clones. Clonaid is willing to relieve the burden of excessive money from people who have too much and would like to clone themselves so that they have more time in which to spend it all. Or something...
I don't think it's a sin or a perversion of nature to clone humans. I even think, hell, sure, figure out how it's done, if that'll make you happy. But, just because you know how to do it, does that mean you should?
There's enough people on the planet without making more of them, never mind copies of some of them.
I look at it the same way I do those in power, whoever is willing to have a copy made of themselves is the one least suited to have a copy made of themself.
If people are worried about corporations creating humans that they own...instead of making cloning illegal, which Bush is trying to get everyone to do, create laws that strictly state that clones immediately are granted citizenship in whatever country they're created in. That way, if you're cloning a dead child, which may or may not be a justifiable goal, you'll go right ahead, but, if you're creating a clone army for interstellar conquest, you still have to pay them human wages...
