> But about 100 people die every minute!

If you have unlimited power, and aren't constrained by current physics, then you can bring them back. Of course, some of them won't want this.

Now, if you have (as I'm interpreting this article) unlimited power, but your current faculties, then embarking on a program to bring back the dead could (will?) backfire.
