I don't see that. We've given up on the idea that human beings have any value beyond their impact on GDP, so if the lower classes aren't seen as necessary they will be allowed to die on the street. Addicting them to cybernetic control systems might be seen as a better alternative because it'll allow them to be "monetized" in some way-- make them go get gig jobs, then gamble away their earnings online. You can see this future already in some cities like San Francisco and across the poorer parts of rural America. https://kagi.com/proxy/2023-Drug-od-death-rates-1.jpeg?c=pqADdrFg1ebfqClQ1b7yN9bo2pSeObad_Su4f2n6yh9vlTaPrrDKY91wI8xYXdn1ViQPiqkZnYsQlfxQ9hJFh-zZBZsajR-iK2n_XRgbkglQP-DV7B07uuUBcM9f6Ix9 https://kagi.com/proxy/2023-Drug-od-death-rates-1.jpeg?c=pqA...
