    It’s more like “you haven’t earned the right to have other people keep you alive”. I daresay it’s related to how, after 40ish years of working and raising a family and being a good citizen you can retire and have the bar for “staying alive” set a lot lower for most.

      I’d amend that to: “You haven’t earned the right to have other people keep you alive after you grow up”
