The age is coming when all of the world will be much older. The real question is if the world is ready for all that aging? Communities around the world will will have to unwillingly flex as the general population will soon become the oldest it’s ever been.
This will truly be a telling time for baby boomers in America. Systems across all platforms will buckle under the weight of this huge generation and everyone is scrambling to figure out the best approach.
Healthcare is the obvious first system that will have to shuffle things around to make way for the aging boomer. Other areas that will be affected will surely be public transportation, care giver and assisted living sectors, restaurants and more will have to bear the weight of the rock generation.
