He/she would know how to do everything and understand everything and there would be no embarrassing screwups due to ignorance. Do the benefits of a forever leader outweigh the negative potential? How do we know until we try it? Maybe if we try it we'll like it.
It balances out of course. It always does. They will live to experience people/things we won't be around to know. Is there an advantage to either one? If so what?

You'd pay what you owed taking change as needed. It was not a rare thing to find. It was typical if the attendant had to leave for awhile. Also in the long ago folks never locked their doors. Today even with multiple locks and alarms homes are not safe from breakins. It seems as if that world did not really ever exist. We read about it but never lived it.

When she died the house was 160 rooms, had 47 fireplaces, 17 chimneys and featured thousands of ghosts who died due to the use of Winchester Rifles. She was told her family was cursed because of that. She began construction in 1884 and stopped when she died (of course) in 1922. The house is open for viewing by those interested. Hallways lead to nowhere, staircases end at the ceiling. Doors open to drop offs to the floor below.You might encounter a ghost or two. An adventure awaits those interested in curiosities. less

Whatever benefits some will harm others. Seldom do we find anything or anyone that benefits or harms EVERYONE. Can you think of any exceptions?

But in the future people will see that we conquered cancer at the price of whatever disease is controlling the population then? That's right. Population control. The world is filling up, over 7 billion of us. We sometimes see illnesses like Ebola are able to kill of loads of Africans, but not harm the western world. Are they so called bio-weapons, diseases and illnesses that are designed to be put into the world to kill people off while maintaining public stability? Is Cancer is our current best selling bioweapon? The thing that is so clever about cancer though is that it has been designed much like cigarettes which are designed to kill you but not straight away, same with cancer, why charge them for a cure when you can charge them for a lifetime of treatments? Isn’t treatment strange though? You are able to spend countless pounds on treatment, but theres no cure availab... less
