Basically, your point is: We should kill the people who CHOOSE not to produce, but not the people that CANNOT produce.
Yes, thank you.
That's a much better point, then. However, does your uncle have a right to support said deadbeats if he wants to? I mean, I'm justified in spending my money however I choose, within reason, right?
My uncle does indeed have the choice to do with his money as he pleases, I'm just say, I wish he wouldn't support dead beats.

Sounds like a position that would be strongly supportive of reinstating child labor. Consequences, consequences... produce or die seems like a silly thing to attempt to actually institute.
Well, child labor is obviously counter-productive.
I could have little Johnny here making teapots for his entire life, or he could study for his degree in some helpful science field.
Children are just like... seeds. Plant them, and they'll grow. Eat them, and, well, that was a short lived victory.
Well, that's different, that isn't her fault.
This still has the same issue, where do you draw on fault? What about a super depressed person? What about someone who had a accident because of stupid reasons and is unable to work? (such as being permanently hurt in a car accident they caused by them drinking?)
Not to mention physiology is not a solved thing, how can you really say it is someone fault that they don't do something? We deal with it the best we can in real life, but death is a very final very non reversible solution. Which is why we pretty much never do it for any avoidable reason now a days.
Depression, IIRC, is a disease. Diseases should be studied. The odds of injury being permanent would probably be lowered, as we would have extra funds to study solutions to problems like that. We would eventually, will the extra millions, develop some form of brain/spine/muscle/whatever regeneration/cybernetics. And people probably wouldn't drink and drive in my society, knowing how incredibly severe the laws would be to prevent stupid things like that. But I guess you are right in alot of areas. Death can't be reversed, but at the same time, so can't some peoples mind sets. The punishment would revolve around choices, not things that just happen. You don't choose to get depressed, you choose to get drunk and get in a head on collision.
