Blog 37

I wrote this on accident a while ago and since we can blog about anything i finally found a place to use it.

In episode 10 of Dollhouse, the creators bring a crazy concept into play, eternal life. If someone important enough decides that they want to live forever and can get the Dollhouse to decide the same thing, they can get their memories scanned into the computer. When they die, they can implant them into a doll and essentially live forever. This causes me to wonder what could happen to the world if the wrong people got their hands on this technology. I don’t believe that someone with the power to make themselves live forever could turn that down. Dollhouse is already a shady business, and with this kind of power, they could do some real harm. This also made me think, what if people wanted to trade bodies but retain their memories? This could be done quite easily with dollhouse. It could also make spying quite easy as well. Whole countries could be taken over by kidnapping enough people and using them to get close to the president or leader and then putting someone else in his body. I also wonder if clones could be created, if one could copy their own thoughts and implant them into multiple bodies.  I cannot even imagine the chaos this could cause.  Obviously it could be helpful by keeping great people alive but you still have to murder someone in order to make room. Maybe their time as a doll and they were used to keep important people alive then returned to normal, I would have less of a problem. Prison already takes time away from people and this would make them more useful.
