I said retired people. Meaning, they don't work anymore.


Ah, I misread it. Interesting concept but the point is sort of moot since a virus can't specifically target people who dont work. Sure, a virus can be more likely to be fatal in older people, but there are still a lot of older people who work, and enough unproductive young people that i still think it would be a net negative.


The virus doesn’t make this distinction. You lose both.


> they don't work anymore.

I see you haven't met my dad.
