You could apply the same logic to those in the developed world whose lives are extended/enhanced by technology, such as diabetics, para/quadraplegics, partially-sighted people, cancer patients, etc - should we let "natural selection" take care of them as well?
There also is the issue that when fewer people die, fewer people will need to be born to sustain a family. The population will decrease (or at least not grow as rapidly), which can only be a good thing.
