Ageism in America and the aging population
The piece surveys ageism in U S society through jokes and ads that belittle older people and notes its persistence in health care, employment, and advertising. It cites Dr Robert Butler and Duke professor Erdman Palmore, and highlights rising elder populations, projected growth to 70 million by 2030, and trends in geriatric care and education.
