You actually want people such as hippies to live forever? :-)

They're truly harmless compared to politicians and bureaucrats. Albeit, business and technology blow both out of the water. Err, render both obsolete. :)  You should read The culture of technology Death be not proud as it partially explains how vermin will be increasingly rendered obsolete -- nullified.

No one lives forever. Even if average lifespan keeps accelerating to where the average person lives a thousand years, at some point an unconsidered accident will happen, and the private space yacht falls into the sun.

People may learn to live for a very, very long time, and I would love to do so. But,... No one lives forever.
