and competition, humans have been genetically
engineered to begin life as clones. from there, the single
global government provides the same education and
health care to all citizens. every home is exactly the same,
everyone receives the same salary, and every family is the
same size. outliers are "removed" from society in order to
ensure uniformity. after several generations, human
genetics naturally begin to diversify, and soon the outliers
far outnumber the indistinguishable clones.
