In our nation, we have a tremendous disregard for the aged population. Once upon a time, not in a fairy tale, but in the real foundations of our nation, the elderly in America were looked upon as wise, experienced, and to be Godly mentors for the younger. Once upon a time, we cared for our elderly family members, and put great stock and reverence in their wise counsel. Once upon a time, we grieved their loss, not only as someone to which we were related, but as a great loss of contribution to the younger. In todays culture, old folks are really not viewed with anything to contribute to our lives. So much so, that in our culture, old folks are classified at quite young ages depending on how young the one doing the classifying is. Teenagers are rarely encouraged to seek out history, and to listen and take in stories and experiences from the older in their lives. With our lives full of technology, and replacement relationships such as Facebook, young people dont have to go outside their comfort zone. Marxist government will inevitably implement death panels within Obamacare, for the useless drains on society that the elderly in America are viewed as.
