if frantically trying to keep everyone alive for 95 or 100 years or more is absolutely necessary.

If that doesn’t work then try 80 to 95, then shucks 60 to 70, and when the kids get in charge 30 might seem reasonable.

Who knows at this point? What I think is clear is that as a nation it looks like we are getting to the point where we have to choose between remaining as a world superpower and supporting science and research or being the caretaker of all the nation’s elderly, because doing all this at once will simply be completely impossible. I think anyone who thinks the US will ever be able to afford to police the world and be responsible for taking care of all our old people is living on a completely different plane of reality.
