There are some nasty diseases that gene editing could eliminate. We'd have to be careful though.

The entire idea is messing with nature, and there's a large chance these types of things could go wrong.

I'm all for stopping disease and chronic disorders, but humanity has proven itself to be arrogant, it will not end there.

Becoming a union member saved my life and changed the direction of my life, being a single mom of two with no child support. I vigorously approve of unions.

John Hargrove

My brief stint as a first line manager convinced me that workers need unions. I saw how upper management, in that setting, really wanted to treat workers.

Sunny Sunshinestein

I worked for a union and later belonged to a union. The downfall of America's middle class correlates directly with the downfall of unions, beginning at least 30 years ago.

Pros and cons of unions

Steven Daniels

Um, what was the question? Anyway, wouldn't you have had to have a job to be in a union? And wouldn't you have to be able to read to have a job?

Sunny Sunshinestein

Are you asking a question or hoping someone will fill in the blanks for you? Sorry, this is KTVZ's poll, not your private blog.
