May 12 - Should We Prohibit Genetically Engineered Babies?
Imagine a world free of genetic diseases, where parents control their
offspring’s height, eye color and intelligence. The science may be
closer than you think. Genes interact in ways that we don’t fully
understand and there could be unintended consequences, new diseases that
result from our tinkering. But even if the science could be perfected,
is it morally wrong? Would it lead to eugenics and a stratified
society where only the rich enjoy the benefits of genetic enhancement?
Or would the real injustice be depriving our children of every
scientifically possible opportunity?
May 19 - Does America Need a Strong Dollar Policy?
It’s often taken for granted that America needs a strong dollar. When
the value of the U.S. dollar is strong relative to other currencies, it
becomes attractive to investors and allows Americans to buy foreign
goods and services cheaply. But in times of recession, are we better off
with a weak dollar that stimulates U.S. manufacturing by making our
goods cheaper and more competitive? Or will the loss of purchasing power
and currency manipulation abroad, offset the potential gains?
May 26 - Should the US Abolish the Minimum Wage?
The first attempt at establishing a national minimum wage, a part of
1933’s sweeping National Industrial Recovery Act, was struck down by the
Supreme Court in 1935. But in 1938, under the Fair Labor Standards Act,
President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed into law a minimum hourly wage
of 25 cents—$4.07 in today’s dollars. Three-quarters of a century later,
we are still debating the merits of this cornerstone of the New Deal.
Do we need government to ensure a decent paycheck, or would low-wage
workers and the economy be better off without its intervention?
