 The New Normal: Slavery of the Womb.

In a recent article in the San Francisco Chronicle, a childless couple decides to have a baby. Nothing essentially differnt with that scenario, except one catch, they have rented a womb of a poor Indian woman and place their embryo inside her.

Hurray for technology! Eureka we have done it! But at what cost to our moral lives?

Surrogacy has happened for years, from the biblical account of Abraham, Haggar and Sarah "Go into my maid and have children for me," to the modern western surrogates, with contracts, problems and birth mothers reneging. But now, there is a new way!

Rent the wombs of the poor! Outsourcing at its finest!
