GDP correlates with life expectancy, so you can't separate deaths and economy as if they were behaving in isolation from each other like you seem to assume in your tantrum.
- jacquesm 7y agoYes, they are correlated. But they are not correlated in such a way that you're going to be looking the people that you've just condemned in the eye. Nor do they have voting family members that will remember that when ballot time rolls around. So this utilitarian argument you are making is going to be a very difficult one to put across and if you feel otherwise about it then it is up to you to stick your neck out, I want no part of it, and neither do most people. The argument that the handicapped, aging and ill should be disposed of has been made before, it didn't end well.
