Personally I am very fond of voluntary human extinction.
If we give up on withering away, and instead learn to accept death with some dignity instead of becoming a parasite to our offspring, euthanasia is a good way to go.
The fact that the older, non productive population will be more than the productive population in the not so distant future suggests that we need to rethink the way we go about doing things.
If life expectancy moves past 100, and people retire at 60-65, society will need to feed and take care of people for 35 or so years, that is far far more than the time and money it invests on its children, for a much larger segment of the population, which suggests that the old exploit the young.
