YOU SHALL NOT PASS

Sir I believe I speak for many when I say the world is a better place with you in it.

You don't see this sort of support for the aging in the USA.

Sure, we have AARP and a few websites, but in the media, in the mainstream, they are ignored, tossed aside.

Admirable what the UK does for its aging citizens.

People don't stand up on the tube for him because he's old, they do it because he's SIR IAN MCKELLEN!!!

@UnrealGlider respect does not exist for the old anymore, whats your problem ?

i'd rather be dead than have to be at the mercy of the NHS and and lack of care this government has towards old age

majority of pensioners live in squalor and misery struggling to have a decent living

you're 19 years of age, you know nothing. live some more and then you'll see what goes on

[UnrealGlider]

@sweetypie000 You cry that respect doesn't exist but then say you'd rather be dead then be like your grand parents?

Very respectful.

One does not simply walk into age concern.
