Lock old people up for their own safety and the safety of the community as a whole ! :-)<br /><br />I had my old folks sent to "Shadey Days Maximum Security Retirement Village". The world is a much happier place !<br /><br />Where I work, we have the opposite problem.<br />There has been no new blood for the past 10 years and now the youngest technicians are about 30 yo.<br /><br />It's one of the down sides to the privatisation of Telstra. The focas is now on profit, and they still have the values installed by the yanks.<br />Where there was once thousands of jobs, they're a now only hundreds, (and bigger profit margins).<br /><br />Those thousands of jobs dispersing money throughout the community (and paying taxes) are now locked away in the form of internal company profit and shareholder dividends.<br /><br />You can just see how this flows on through the community.
