    You are also dying in the future. So no treatment for you. It’s even cheaper the sooner you die. And since you don’t need money after you’ve died, lets make your last days so expensive that we can extract all the money from you and if possible from the rest of your family. Profit.

      Whoa whoa whoa. We can’t just let people die until we’ve extracted their economic output, up to the point where the cost of the treatment exceeds expected remaining economic output.
