I think it does because in the article they targeted blacks, the mentally ill, and prisoners. All of which are considered an "inferior class". It's implicit eugenics IMHO.

I will be very interested to see the results of the bioethics commission.

Much of this horrific history is 40 to 80 years old, but it is the backdrop for a meeting in Washington this week by a presidential bioethics commission. The meeting was triggered by the government's apology last fall for federal doctors infecting prisoners and mental patients in Guatemala with syphilis 65 years ago.
Pictures have emerged providing the shocking proof that U.S. government doctors once experimented on disabled American citizens and prison inmates.
Such experiments included giving hepatitis to mental patients in Connecticut, squirting a pandemic flu virus up the noses of prisoners in Maryland, and injecting cancer cells into chronically ill people at a New York hospital.
Back in the mid 90s, Hazel O'Leary, then secy of energy, revealed documents showing how the govt experimented with radiation on terminal patients w/o their consent.
Liberals don't approve of this crap and never have.
That is where you are wrong. Liberal freaks started this. Beginning with the liberal freak Margaret Sanger. But it got its biggest boost from the liberal Rockerfeller Foundation in 1929 who called for the killing or sterilization of people whose heredity made them a "public burden." The "American Model" was adopted by Germany in 1933, but obviously the Germans were not the only nation preying on its own citizens. FDR used forced sterilization in his Tennessee Valley Authority project, which was his model for the rest of the nation. Thankfully, that was one liberal freak who died before he could implement his American-made holocaust.

Targeted them for what?
What about any of those experiments had anything to do with Eugenics?
