    Agreed, but I doubt anyone could be that stupid and be able to operate a
    computer, therefore he is just a troll. He could be an unhinged lunatic
    like hubbca, Alex Chiu, or Bertha Verroneau though.

    People live longer and are less likely to die from infectious disease as
    kids. And people don't take care of themselves, so they suffer from chronic
    diseases as they get older.

    Living longer is not necessary an advantage. Go to any nursing home and see if
    you would prefer to live that way, or die younger.
