Do the weak always need to suffer and die first?
I know this is a rhetorical question, but the fact is that they don't "need" to, but, being weak, they are the first to feel any strain.
But putting it this way stresses that fact that any good policies should usually care for the weakest as a priority, because if you solve the problem for them (and they don't suffer), chances are that nobody else will face that problem either. In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes
