Other people take jobs that expose them to heavy machinery, stressful hours, and bad weather. For example, we don't allow pregnant women to work around wood polish fumes.

Right now, they're spread around pretty randomly. Only by screening does an organization distort the inherent justice of our remaining ignorant of genetic risk.
