Old people are utterly useless. Why do we keep them around at an advanced age? They do nothing but devour resources and provide zero benefits.

Old people have value beyond their usefulness. They have acquired a wealth of experience and a store of knowledge over their lifetime that is invaluable. In addition, elderly people have served important roles as caretakers, mentors, and community members. By ignoring and discounting the elderly, not only are we missing out on valuable contributions they could be making, but we are also depriving the elderly of the respect they deserver.
