Should poor people live, or should they die? 😏 Let us know in the comments!

I have an uncomfortable feeling that some online news column comments are going to be like this in 5 years...

Depends on if we've already gotten through the "gays" by then. The system always needs a scapegoat. /s (but only barely)

5 years? It's been like that for the past 300 years! We faught a war over this!

We already have that. It's called "too expensive"

Is this satire or just how things b?

You'll hear a weird sound coming from the Eli Lilly headquarters soon, as if thousands of foreheads were slapped simultaneously for not thinking about this sooner

The Onion shows time and time again that the perfect headline will have tons of upvotes and no comments. At least until I ruined it, sorry.
