> such a path seems somehow "better" than popping Metformin in front of a television in a Boca Raton retirement community The person who doesn't pop Metformin will obviously have retired earlier and be in that retirement community earlier. > tooling around the country in an 8 MPG RV. Once again the the person who doesn't pop Metformin will be crippled sooner and mentally declined sooner. (Assuming you are degrading tv and RV's) So I have no idea of the point on this bit. I also think you romanticise what happens to people "too old to work the farm". You can go check it out today in many developing countries.
