[Robert DeLong]

No one was attempting to deprive you of anything, I was merely pointing out the fact that longer lifespans do have negative consequences, which will impact our grandchildren.

So I guess in your eyes I am a Nazi for pointing out that fact. Whatever.

[Smokin' Joe]

Negative consequences? You would snuff the accumulated wisdom of lifetimes, the ability to adapt to 60, 70, or more years of change, accumulated skills, and the knowledge of how things used to be.

The latter has been promoted enough by the 'generation gap' people, compounding the ignorance of those younger, especially when it comes to long term megatrends and the loss of Liberty.

Cultural continuity requires that those who remember be able to pass those memories on, so the expectations of the young are not easily manipulated by those who would do so to their advantage, especially the accumulation and usurpation of power.

The elimination of those who remember would suit the Totalitarians just fine.
