Your great, great grandfather probably died around the age of 40 before the transplants and modern society advanced the medicine. He would probably be in favour of living longer than dying early.
I’m actually curious how people make arguments while referring to a completely different period of time with its own problems.
- function_seven 3y agoI know this is a tangent, but it’s unlikely great grandpa only lived to 40. Even 100 years ago, someone who was 39 would be expected to live another 28 years on average. All those low life expectancy numbers were due to high infant- and childhood-mortality rates. That nitpick aside, yeah gramps’ prior claim should not be given the weight it has.
