The Ubersociety Manifesto Introduction Our society is leeched upon by miscreants, criminals, and those who cannot contribute to the greater good. This manifesto is made with the common person in mind, who has his or her tax dollars stolen every day to fund programs that are a complete waste of money and could be used instead for projects that benefit common people like you and me. It is also made to better society as a whole, by eliminating differences in intellectual and physical ability, with eugenics. Equality and Superiority We can improve our society by making all those in it equal; we can achieve equality through genetic engineering. Looks, intellect, and physical strength will no longer be factors in which one can prove himself greater than the other. Each and every one of those who subscribe to this idea of eugenics will greatly contribute to society as a whole. We will experience many great scientific achievements by those who have been altered to have a better mind; the rate at which science will progress will be unheard of since the dawn of time. With everyone now truly created equal with eugenics, there will be less strife in the world. Society as a whole will benefit. Not only can we reduce healthcare costs, but we will no longer need special education programs in school. Why? Because there are no more people with debilitating congenital diseases, there are no more people who are obese, and there are no more people with mental handicaps. The money saved from cutting these programs can be used instead to fund public projects that benefit everyone, instead of being concentrated on a select few individuals. Streamlining our Society Billions of dollars are spent on inconceivable expenses such as homeless shelters and mental institutions. This money would be better spent on the common people. Of course, in an Ubersociety that practises eugenics, we would not have homeless people, nor would we have those that are insane and mentally handicapped. Homeless people are a drain on society that refuse to work, or simply just do not have the toolset to be productive. With eugenics, everyone will have something to contribute to society; be it the master piano player who can eloquently play Mozart�s works, the genius who solves a breakthrough in a cure for cancer, or the athlete who can run the 100 meters in 9 seconds. If we eliminate those that are a drain on society, we could, again, use this money to help fund programs and projects that are more important to us. With this extra money, we could provide our children with a better education, explore the secrets of space, or improve our city�s infrastructure. We do not need society�s lower leeches. For the benefit of the greater good, they must be eliminated. Work in progress, lah.

Individuality is what made science what it is today, you cannot truly advance without it.

Eugenics does nothing to alter one's personality. We'll still have very distinct people, albeit people with the same, augmented capabilities.
