productive to die. The old, the sick, the poor, Africans, the mentally ill, etc. all to make room for more rich people at the top who want to live to 120 and hardly paying taxes at all. What they glaringly miss is that the quality of life people live, the meaning each individual finds in their family or elsewhere, that does not correlate to being wealthy or seeming to be a success in the physical world. It is how you connect to the world that is important and how you share that as you age with the younger generations. On that scale the rich in the GOP should be gotten rid of first.
