Default There's a market for these genes

Jellyfish that get younger after mating.


We just need to find the genetic code that causes transdifferentiation and put it into humans. That would be a much better way to spend the 1.1 trillion dollar bailout. If no one got old, we wouldn't need social security or medicare anymore (or at least as much as we do now) and would save billions every year.

Ya but then douchebags with all the money in the world would live for ever.. While the nerds who cant get laid would die off.
I think it would throw the ratio off.

I dont know about you, but bill gates needs to die one of these days.
Hugh Heffner should be immortal however.

Seen Benjamin Button lately?

It'd be kind of weird, but yeah... Humans need to die off (not the race, just the individuals).

No. We, as a species, need to die off. I am all for enhancing the quality of life until you are 100, but after 100, please die. The world would become so overpopulated!

But we would get religious, conservative leaders for the world, so there'd always be war and lots of death!

Actually, it would be pretty cool if they can alter the genes to make people age older from 0 - 50 years old and then get younger from 50 - 0.

That would be an okay compromise right? Keeps the balance and so on.

Im all for sterility if you take this drug. After all if you are allowed to stay on this Earth, you shouldn't be allowed to have a child to take your place eventually. That is IF you haven't had kids yet.
