Re: The Place of Retiredmen in Capitalist Society
Do older people actually invest in their futures? What?
That is an interesting question ... For werstern societies. From a materialistic perspective they should, and common sense dictates that they do it. Because if a child is supposed to live on his/her own after a certain age then parents are quite free to invest in their future.
So, I guess endling up in old homes is not realy a major problem but living alone and lonelyness is.
Baghban is good movie , somewhat futuristic and exagerated. Senior people have loads of experience so they mostly take calculated risks and their vision is quite broad. but the movie shows otherwise.
