On the question of eugenics and the existing power structure, probably the
strongest opposition to eugenics policies came from the Catholic church
(the Catholic writer G. K Chesterton was particularly outspoken in his
opposition), so we have the situation where a group not noted for its
opposition to existing power structures was opposed to eugenics policies,
whereas many socialists who envisaged radical changes in the structure of
society were in favour.
