The day we forsake death and replacement is, literally, the day we stop moving forward as a species. It would be the ultimate act of selfishness.

And why is there a need for the expense of paying for schools if the working classes never age? Having children or even being a child could be a reason to be discriminated against. But perhaps only the rich could afford it, in which case having children would be a sign of being lower class. And I imagine it would lead to widespread murder, as those appalled by the notion of immortality would try to take out those that embrace it. Has any (good) science fiction even properly dealt with this kind of dystopia? I would like to read it.
