Those born with the means...don't forget the means.  When they roll out immortobots, guys like the Kochs will get them, not you and I.  What do you think...if people like the Kochs condensed and became over-representative in the way that their wealth currently does ..

That would be ironic if the Kochs actually expanded to inhabit all the human mind niches with their own clones - and NOBODY else. Would class struggle finally be at an end, perfect democracy become possible?

Amen.
