Whatever Happened To Respect For Your Elders?
-
After officials in the U.K. denied that their preference in dealing with a lack of housing would be for older folks to move out of their houses and make way for younger families, the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, an influential group of planners, said exactly that. They're saying, "downsize, old people, for the good of the nation." Yes, people are upset. You make it to retirement, you scrimp and save to pay off your house, you finally can enjoy it, and you're told to get out so someone else can live there. No respect. (The Guardian)
