90% of those cancer kills are elderly. The elderly indirectly kill many people and ruin society because they keep voting after their brains turn to mush.

I have heard at least for some cancers the risk actually lowers when you become old enough (because your cells become less active in general).

I'm not sure I'd say voting with mush for brains is a feature exclusive to the elderly (:
