Your value goes far beyond what you contribute to GDP.
And when you die, your friends and fam won't think of the financial benefit to the govt from that extra year you spent working, they'll only think of the time they spent (or didn't) with you and what you chose to do with the time you had.

Dr. Oz: "If we can get the average person to work one more year in their whole lifetime -- just stay in your workplace for one more year -- that is worth about $3 trillion to the US GDP. That's the productivity we would unleash ... if you're sick, you can't work."
