Can't just let a dying person go home and die in peace. Let's extract every bit of capitalist value we can from them first.

I would sooner support proper and guaranteed benefits for dying people so they don't have to keep working until they drop dead.

That's like going off against raising the minimum wage because you'd rather support workers owning their enterprises.
