I guess it raises a number of questions, mainly would the therapy be offered worldwide, or only to the first world countries?

I would think it would reflect now. Well off families have a few kids, welfare families have five plus. Homo Superiors would have one or two, norms would have twice that.

Hopefully to just first world. But it would eventually leach to 3rd. Those people would conquer and control with a iron fist. Just think of Africa now, now imagine a select few warlords genetically splicing their kids to control easier.

The thing is you want to rich to adapt technology because they drive the innovation with the inflated prices they pay to make it cheaper and more efficient to produce.

Also, anybody who wants replacement body parts wants the research being done now on adult stem cells to get more funding then infant stem cells. One there is a much greater supply that gets replenished and two using your own stem cells means no rejection syndrome.
