If you are poor, really poor, ie: no money to retire on, no health insurance, no family, no real possessions, no real estate, nothing substantial, then what is the point of growing old?
There is nothing to look forward to except illness and depression. IF you learn to live with your depression, then your body will eventually decay and the medical profession will give you enough pills to kill the pain and keep you alive a few more years, but for what?
Isn't it better to collect what money you can and have a few days or weeks of insane fun living, then just snuff it? Instead of years and years of pain and depression?
In this country, if you grow old without decent funds, there is absolutely nothing to look forward to and your level of living just doesn't seem to mean anything.
A life, not being able to contribute anything to society, really isn't a life at all. It's more of a bacteria's way of life. Alive, but not really alive.
