Too big to die? Eaten by our own?

How necessary death is to life. We cannot survive a day without something dying, such as the plants and animals we call our food. The soil is the excrement of worms. This year my garden has lots of worms, so it seems healthy to me. Death and decay are part of the very cycle of life. One corollary to this is anything which grows and grows but has lost the ability to die is a cancer. What do we have that we expect to grow and grow and never die? Businesses and governments. People generally recognize the ill effects of these organisms which seek to take over our lives. What will happen to us when one or more of these does become too big to die? Will we be eaten by our own?
