The solution is nothing like this. The solution is to let the men die because they are clearly not strong enough to be on their own or find a family. This is brutal, I know, but this is unfortunately the reality of life on earth. No reason why we should be exempt.

The solution to kitten punting isn't to stop punting kittens because the kittens are clearly not strong enough to avoid being punted. This is brutal, I know, but kitten punting is unfortunately the reality of life on earth. No reason why kittens should be exempt.

The solution to thirst isn't to provide water because the thirsty are clearly not strong enough to find water. This is brutal, I know, but thirst is unfortunately the reality of life on earth. No reason why people should be exempt.

Kitten punting... now that's a thing I didn't want to know exists.

Let the good god Darwin sort it out?

That is the way it’s always been and is currently - I highly doubt any real “solution” exists outside of home health care robots or automated wellness checks

Exactly. The proposed solutions are... inhuman.

So.

Hey, why have a health care at all?

At the very least, if you're going to propose a solution (to any problem), make sure it actually tackles the problem so that the problem is lessened or ceases to exist after the solution is applied. Otherwise what you've proposed isn't a solution at all, just a nonsensical statement. I would even go a step further and call your specific statement lacking empathy, bordering on sociopathic.

My friend, I have had to look into this abyss myself. Although I must admit that my skillset did allow me to escape, I do not believe that all man must succumb to this outcome.

This is a disgusting viewpoint to have.
