THE MYTH OF THE "VOLUNTEER"
Of course, we accept volunteers and pay them accordingly. However,
there's a problem with this. Not many people want to volunteer to have
their babies recloned. After all, they feel uneasy knowing that they have
"children" (albeit clones, which aren't really people to begin with) whom
they will never see. Thus, a new policy was instigated. We have operatives
who scour the country for abandoned and orphaned
infants. Cell-samples are taken and shipped to us.
In addition, doctors
in all local hospitals are on the lookout for newborn infants who are at
risk for genetic peculiarities: hearing loss, dyslexia, leukemia, and so
on. Samples are taken from these infants as needed and shipped to us.
Parental permission is no longer necessary.
However, in order
to
keep up the public vision that we get our cell-samples from legitimate
volunteers, it is necessary to continue the "volunteer" campaign, as well
as to offer a substantial monetary compensation.
