      There’s more than enough wealth in this world to do it too. We just let greedy parasites hoard it for no good reason.

        Euthanize people once they’re too old to work and most of the problem is solved. Euthanize everyone with a hundred million dollars or more and it’s all solved.

        Friendly reminder that people over 55 own 52% of the US and boomers as a generation own about 8x more than billionaires

        The entire concept of retirement is the problem in an aging society, it only works with population growth because you need young people whose labour to live off of.

          I’m unable to work and on a disability pension. I’m objectively a burden on society, I’ll be siphoning far more money from the system than any retiree in my lifespan.

          Should I be euthanized too? Genuinely asking.
