Asian countries value their elderly population, and they see absolutely nothing "wrong" with caring for family members that cannot care for themselves.
Why does American culture find it necessary to despise those who are the weakest, and sickest among us, then cry out that it is "culling".
That's the foundation in every Republicans ideal - culling out those who are deemed "weakest".
I'm a human being, and I'm not a plant or lifestock. Efforts to reduce the human race as a whole to be fodder for the upper 1% - the billionaires - not even millionaires count anymore. You have to be so wealthy as to be the very top of income for anyone to give a shit about you.
WAY too much financial power in the hands of the few, and if you think they are altruistic, you are out of your mind. You become a fantastically wealthy person by being an exploitative, devious and generally horrible person.
Many of us do not "envy" the wealthy, we are actually pointedly stunned that people could be so horrible to their fellow man.
