Overpopulation will trump all advances. Today the world is roughly 1/4 China, soon to be 1/4 India, 1/4 Moslem and 1/4 everyone else. China is attempting birth control. India in 50 years will equal China in size. The Moslem world is doubling every 2 generations (takes over Europe in 2100) and everyone else is rapidly shrinking in percentage. China is hell bent at taking over the world economics. The Moslems want you to convert or die. India wishes to rival China. Everyone else will be taking their last cruise, sipping that last Martini, spouting secular diatribe, crying about Dolhin in their tuna, buying that one final Hybrid car, taking Mass alone on Sunday, resetting their dock because the sea rose 2" in one year...again, Africa has succombed to drought-plague-HIV-tribal warfare, South America has the Atomic bomb and no one cares.
Who will have time, money or energy to further explore life extension.
