One thing is for sure -- if and when life extension becomes viable... it won't extend the life of the poor.

That is legit worrisome :)
At first it will be limited to the rich as time goes on and the technology improves it will become cheaper and more accessible.
That might be a bit optimistic. With AI, advances in robotics, and life extension, the powerful might decide that they just really don't need us proles anymore. I don't think either outcome is guaranteed.
Just look at what has happened with every technology before. Most people have computers, cars, phones, etc now.
