Whether "I" like them or agree with their POV is completely irrelevant.

what you are doing is discussing infringing on the rights of others for the "good" of the collective or commune...what you are advocating is purely communistic...
Communistic?
Actually the basic idea goes back to Aristoteles:
Hint: The basic concept of communism was invented in the 19th century, Aristoles lived in a different period.

Now, if you upscale the above quote you will end up with planet and mankind.

maybe you want to live in some commune or collective where the rights of the individual take a back seat to what the authority claims is best for the majority....thats EXACTLY what you are advocating...
I start to wonder why you hate teachers that much - you are so simple I wish you had spent more time in classrooms.

overpopulation just like global warming, are both non issues that are only perpetuated as a vehicle to broader control over the "human RESOURCES" (that is all we are to the ruling class...just a bunch of resources to be exploited)
govts would love a reason to renege on their social security schemes, and if culling the elderly early will save the govt (not the people) money then they will push for it...

Ruling class? What, The Temple Knights? lol

Goverments?
Unless you live in a time bubble in the former UDSSR, I got bad news for you. Governments are elected by the citizens, and to no surprise, only reflect the quality of the the voters.
You dont like what "they" (which is actually "us") do: Don't ever miss an election and go voting.
Still don't like it? Feel free to start a political career, do better what they failed at.

Still unhappy?
Well, then it's possible you're the minority, and the majority doesn't share your POV.
Get over it, this is how democracies work.

By then you may feel tempted to join my side, lol.
