I agree. What's the use of a human being after retirement if they haven't prepared (saved lots of money) for their own retirement? They are no longer being productive. They are no longer worth anything. Let's put them to sleep like the crippled horses that they will be. Life is terminal, deal with it and don't make Gen-X and Gen-Y pay billions of dollars, cheating us out of 30-40 years of prosperity to extend your lives an extra 1-5 years.

What makes the whole thing ironic is that the Boomer Generation gave this country legalized abortion, and in doing so they provided their own children with the kind of pragmatic "I don't give a sh!t about anyone but me" attitude that will ultimately result in mandatory euthanasia.

Someone should only retire if they've set enough money away and can afford to do that. Otherwise just go on working and supporting your own self. Working is better for you anyway.

I think there was a Governor Lamb of Colorado who once said seniors had an obligation to "hurry up and die" when they were no longer productive.
