Today was my first turn and it was not bad at all like I
expected. I was actually happy because an idea from the recent paragraph lead
me to create my ideas and conclusion for the next paragraph, which, I guess, is
the whole purpose of what we’re even doing. I was actually happy to see how
insightful it is to discuss the paragraphs as a class because I would have
never been able to deduce the correlation between the dying cats and the old
men by myself. I also agree with everything we’ve been saying, and this might
sound harsh, but in a way, the elderly are the “scum” of society, (sadly
including my own grandparents) unless they provide something for society. This
problem will never be fixed because human compassion is not going to let us
just kill off anyone who is a burden for society. We won’t let other hurt our
loved ones and we must be really determined to rid society of them to actually
do something to them. This will get even worse when the life expectancy
increases and we have even more people in retirement homes and doing nothing
but sitting around.
