Genetic Discrimination

A bill was just passed in the House of Represenative 414 to 1. The only opposed was Ron Paul. The bill states employers and insurance companies that they may not use the results of genetic tests in choosing their employees and customers. The most important reason for this bill is to keep fairness in the workplace. Obviously you shouldnt be able to not get a job because you have a high risk at cancer, thats discriminating just like employers used to discriminate against black people, and women.
