So they're never going to be part of that decision.
But on a societal level, I also think people, we have such a sense of like, you've had your time, don't speak up for yourself, that people feel like they can't make noise.
And maybe it'll call attention to how old they are, and that's like the worst thing about them.
So it's changing a bit.
I think the silent and great generations really didn't stand up for themselves.
I mean, you'd have people in excruciating pain who wouldn't admit it.
Boomers are doing better, and I do think that's why we're starting to see more of this.
And in fairness to, you know, Gen Z, maybe in particular...
And a variety of others.
But there was a lot of comment, at least initially, on the nursing home crisis and all the deaths in nursing homes.
And we've never seen so much press about aging.
But has it followed through to its logical conclusion?
And has it gone beyond just sympathy to actually looking at the structures that caused these problems?
Uh, but we also have, you know, tons of young people volunteering and making a difference.
Uh, I do think if the older people who aren't already vulnerable would stand up for themselves and say they're old, you know, if you had like, like RBG does it, but you know, do we hear Nancy Pelosi or Joe Biden or Donald Trump or, you know, I mean, whichever side you're on Mitch McConnell.
I mean, there's so many of them, right?
Those are old people.
Those are old people in power and they don't, they don't,
They don't lobby.
You have the Black Caucus.
