> Military drones, human cloning, designer babies,

Only one of these is objectionable.

The other two ought to be pursued so we can further advance the human race and improve the quality of everyone's lives. They're totally justified.

In the sense that it would give the wealthy an unreasonable advantage to stay wealthy forever and mean an end to social mobility, which would in turn lead to a feudal social class system, yes.

The thing is though, money does that already if your society doesn't have strong inheritance taxation, so I'm not sure it's really such a problem.
