DNA

Recently the supreme court voted on DNA discrimination. The outcome was 414 to 1. The winning decision was that companies looking at someones DNA to determine if they will get a job or not is not right. I agree with this. Similar to skin color your DNA is something about yourself you have no control over unless your name is Peter Parker and your bitten by a mutant spider.But ANYWAY, just because someones DNA says they may be more liable to get a certain disease more than someone else isn't a reason to cut them off, they deserve the job just as much as the next person. But then again it may be good for companies, because it gives them an opportunity to hire the healthier worker and make more money. But its still inhumane.
