Funding government services and stimulating the economy are not mutually exclusive options. Infrastructure and education can be government services, but they also bolster the economy.

We're already past embryos. New CRISPR/CAS9 methods have demonstrated gene editing in adult mice. There's no technical reason why we won't be able to perform gene therapy on adults humans.

for humanity to survive for millennia... sure

for humanity to survive for the next few hundred years, a precipitous drop in population to more sustainable levels would be wise.

You are implying some arbitrary normal human as a baseline reference. And the only difference between those two scenarios is whether you are moving someone up to that baseline or past that baseline. But why should we set the goalpost at average human instead of setting the goalpost of optimum human potential? Most of us who aren't Olympic-level athletes and super-geniuses all has some genetic conditions that hold us back from reaching the greatest heights of human achievement. If those conditions can be fixed genetically, then why shouldn't they be? That's like saying that only people who are bad at math should be allowed to use calculators.

In what jurisdiction would they sue? The Martian Emperor does not recognize the authority of Terran courts.

Gary Johnson of the Libertarian Party is on the ballot in all 50 states

Cough. Cough. Oxygen is produced at the anode. Hydrogen is produced at the cathode. The anode and the cathode can be separated by any type of barrier necessary for safety.

The autoignition temperature for H2 is almost 1000 degrees Fahrenheit. It's actually hard to ignite at STP and normal oxygen levels without specialized equipment. Gasoline fumes are are more reactive (ie lower autoignition temperature) than H2 but nobody causes much of a fuss over storing gasoline is properly designed containers at home. Pressurized containers are a hazard by themselves, but safe solutions could be engineered for mass use.

I think the graphic rape scenes disqualify it from being Young Adult.

Try living in Finland are refusing to pay taxes. The guns will show up pretty quickly.
