We’re kinda already in that situation. The wealthy can afford medical treatments and life prolonging procedures, as well as healthier food and circumstances. They already live longer while we suffer and die.
It’ll be biotech, so low production cost, high IP gatekeeping costs (pharma patents). Something on this scale of financial and political (once people know it’s out there riots will be just the beginning) implication will lead to some government somewhere nationalizing it and then it’ll be on for young and old (pun intended).
Let’s see…. Ultra wealthy exchanging their blood for the blood of young people to live longer, and in the meantime US life expectancy dropping… yep. Checks out
We’re not going to live 200 years the rich and wealthy will. We’re going to be short-lived slaves

But governments will see a way to turn expensive retirees (in civilized countries that look after them) into taxpayers again. So, long lived slaves…
