- lotsofpulp 5y agoThat was my underlying point. All of these problems are a problem of society’s willingness to spend x resources on y cause, and it should get very interesting as the population pyramid gets much older than ever before in the world’s history. For example, I am not enthused at directing a lot of society’s resources at sustaining 80+ year olds while our kids are not well taken care. But that is a different topic.
