You and others who hold this idea fail to understand a certain facet of society: there are those around you who want you around, and are willing to care for you, even with your infirmities.
They might have to hunt for you, but you could share your decades of experience and advice. You could remember how the group pulled through a drought, what herbs have medicinal properties, where the best foraging is at certain times of the year. Just passing down folk lore and oral tradition is an important role.

I think you’d be surprised how many of us truly have no one. I’m lucky but I have known others who never were.
I understand it all too well. I’m taking about professionals.

You may have only made it that far due to your elders and their teachings. Although i agree at a certain point of suffering it does become selfish.

This country has more than enough money to take care of the elderly, the disabled, the veterans, the poor.
The problem is the fucking billionaires and their insatiable greed.

There was a practice among certain groups where an elderly person would go out to hunt, alone. You following me here?
Actually don’t follow me. I’m going out to hunt.
