You could both be right.

You’re defending the idea that lives are risked in every endeavor.

He’s talking about what happens when politicians use a particular phrase.

Obviously this is the wrong thread to elaborate on the issue, but I think we should define a price (measured in currency) of what a life or year of life is worth, such that we have a basis to compare risks and the costs of risk avoidance in different life situations. Most people would find that inhumane (probably they'd use less nice words), but I think it would merely make explicit and fair what is now intransparent and unfair.
