Aging and death is an enormous drain on society, emotionally, financially and in myriad other ways. Years leading to death are often uncomfortable or miserable. Extended friends and families are affected in their freedoms, finances, and mental health. Thus it seems reasonable to expect huge, across-the-board gains in human flourishing and well-being, if we could somehow eliminate aging and death. Nor does that mean we couldn't work in parallel to address inequality, oppression and suffering in other ways.
