International Regulations on Human Genetic Engineering and Designer Babies - James Indigo - 12-26-2013

I was wondering which country has the most lax laws on human genetic intervention, or where so called designer babies are legal, that would actually have the technology to accomplish said task. (Obviously third world countries without any modern scientific technology would be unlikely to have any regulations regarding said technology but would be useless unless you've got the millions to setup your own genetics corporation).

Essentially I'm wanting to have a kid in a few years and my family has some very positive and some very negative genetic factors, and I realized people like myself who want their own biological children without the risk of genetic defects would pay a lot of money to do so. Also same sex couples being able to have their own genetic offspring would be a huge market as well.
