Caught this last night while dodging thousand of pre-teen girls watching Twilight. Interesting tale about a world where everyone can live young forever, as long as they can afford it. People buy sell, and trade time, because if they run out they die. It has a very lefty bent, but I still found the idea of a totally new economic system interesting.
Thomas Sowell: There are no solutions, just trade-offs.
Why a "lefty bent"? Sounds like a perfect Ayn Randian/Capitalist utopia... The rich stay young forever, and screw the ones who can't afford it? You should love that.
