[Looper] So Jeff Daniels' character was never going to be killed by his future self? He was sent back to stay until natural death?

The Looper hitmen are all stupid opportunists who aren't very good at long-term decision making.  They get killed because they can't be trusted with knowledge of the future.  They'll fuck things up for everyone if allowed to run around freely.

Jeff Daniels is that perfect mix of competent, trusted, and lazy.  He isn't going to accidentally fuck everything up for the organization with his knowledge of the past, nor is he going to try to seize control for himself.  He's going to enjoy the relatively good lifestyle he has been handed on a silver platter, and hang out there until he dies a natural death.
