In the past they would’ve been old and grumpy and then died before they could cause real problems. Now with old people living longer than ever they can fuck things up for the rest of us.

    So, like, in the book Logans Run, the cutoff was age 21. In the movie this was raised to 30.

    But, then they found out people could live to be old, and everybody wanted this.

      I think wanting to live long and being frustrated at an ageing population are two entirely different thoughts

          I’m glad you know the buzz words. Good for you. The next step is understanding how to use them :)
