@softspokenman: There are lots of advantages for a government to have genetically enhanced people. Less healthcare costs, more productivity, more innovation, better soldiers, and so on. In a world dominated by superpowers like the US and Russia, it wouldn't be hard to imagine that some country out there would also want a slice of the pie

@HalfCactus: It could also produce people with an intelligence level to end all the BS between superpowers and to change the life experience into a beautiful one for everyone, especially in the future, instead of the living hell that it is.
