I don’t really see why billionaires change the calculus. So what if they get slightly genetically superior children? They already have everything.

You haven’t actually read/watched any of the media we’re talking about here, have you?

Gattaca is one of my favourite movies. Is there another thing you’re talking about?

I liked the way posthuman society was portrayed in the ‘firefall’ novels, how fucking bleak and horrible it got, but omg.
