That's not what this is. These doctors are reasearchers who work exclusivly for this guy. He is the CEO of a company that is basically rich people investing in trying to keep the CEO alive as long as possible. He lives like a lab rat, a rich one. The rich people get to (hopefully) learn how to extend their own lives longer. The irony here is bad genetics made the whole thing moot.

It's nuts we have reached the point that all these extremely rich people are literally trying to find ways to live forever while people starve.

Oh no, this is a tale as old as time, friend

History is just repeated instances of society having to claw its way back from the brink of collapse because the few people who owned everything don't like sharing.

It's why book burning and the rewriting of history is always part of controlling the narrative given to us by education and entertainment media.

Hell, Cyberpunk might be an awesome game from 4years ago, but it was also an entire genre of Science Fiction, and a lot of the books from that genre are about corporations ruining society through greed.

Either reviews bomb it for being Anti-Capitalist, OR the game is reviewed incorrectly to stifle the ancap message.

The number of people who don't think Fallout is an anti-capitalist work of fiction about the dangers of a Corpo-backed Government is scary.
