So, I am sitting in the waiting room of my local hospital waiting for my fiance to recover from her procedure. It isn't a serious one; just a test, but she still has to be anesthetized. While I am waiting, I am looking around the room at all the people. It got me thinking: "Man, if we had clones, we wouldn't need hospitals like we know them now. Doctors would be more like nurses and the bittersweetness of health insurance would be a distant memory. If you got sick, you can just opt for a new clone. Maybe jump clones would replace travel. We could nearly eliminate our dependence on fossil fuels and focus more money on social projects instead of infrastructure, healthcare and other such money sinkholes. Of course, war could be a side effect. The value of human life would be near zero and we would over populate any planets we lived on. It would be interesting though. So, if you should ever find yourself at a hospital, just think, CCP might have prophesied our future and what you see could now be a thing of the past.
As always, fly safe-ish
