Question about cryonics?

Even if it were technically possible to revive a person after being deep-frozen, it won't be a simple matter of popping them into the microwave oven on "defrost" for a few minutes. It will be expensive and difficult. So.... who would want to revive some old hag or geezer who had a full life and lived it? Even if the world population crisis is somehow solved, someone will still have to produce a few million dollars at least. Of course if you are Einstein or Mozart it would be a different story, but just your ordinary person - or even an enormously rich but still ordinary person like Bill Gates - the future will not want you.
