Death is the greatest of all equalizers; no one can elude it, no matter how blessed in life. Take that away and you will have either the greatest differentiator between the haves (those who can pay for extended life) and the have-nots, or the mother of all entitlement programs.

Also, it is foolish to assume that longer life equals greater productivity. Death is the proverbial “shot clock” that forces people to score before time runs out. Take away the clock and humanity will slide into despair and suicide as we fritter away the hours that are no longer precious.
