Sometime in the near future you find yourself the personal attorney of one of the wealthiest people on the planet. He has the status of Elon Musk, in that the United States relies on several of his companies for a good many things. Do to his lifestyle he has developed liver failure and is given a poor prognosis with a life expectancy for 24-36 months. His team is now convinced that they can clone your client and and accelerate the clone's growth rate based upon the work of the "Nazi doctor" Joseph Mengele during World War 2. The team has duplicated this work in several 3rd world countries with loose human experimentation laws. They have found in simple terms, that they can clone the "billionaire" and that the clone can reach a level of maturity of a 6 year old within 12 months. They plan to then harvest the liver, transplant it, and euthanize the clone. The lawyer for the "Billionaire" is also prepared to argue that if the US Government could ethically and legally enlist the help of Nazi SS Officer Wernher von Braun and German Luftwaffe Medical Researcher, Hubertus Strughold to create the space program, that his client has the right to do the same sort of thing to prolong is own life.

1. Are there currently any legal grounds to support or oppose this action?

2. What are the ethical ramifications of both the clone and using Nazi research?

3. Does the clone have "rights?"
