From a moral standpoint, I think that cloning is absolutely wrong, no doubt about it. Creating a life, just to destroy it for my own benefit? How could that ever possibly be right?

From other standpoints, I can see all sorts of problems. Who's gonna be in charge of these clones? Do you just go see your Dr. and have one made? Then what happens to it? Where does it go? Surely you don't want a braindead version of yourself at home with you. Do we put them in some sort of "nursing home"? And who's to say that someone couldn't make another clone of you, only not of the braindead variety? And take over your identity. After all, this clone would be "you", would it not?
