Protect Family Caregivers
Millions of people in America take care of loved ones who need help caring for themselves. Anyone who has ever been a family caregiver knows that taking care of someone else takes time and money. Working caregivers have it particularly rough because they may have to cut back hours, switch to lower paying jobs, take leaves of absence, or sometimes stop work entirely to focus on providing care.

    I work as an aged care RN and it is so rewarding. I plan to do my masters in gerontology then go on to become a nurse practitioner but will continue working my shifts as I will never leave my residents, I love them too much and have such a connection with them.

    To me, it is irresponsible to obsess over how we can make humans live longer and longer, without a thought for how we might extract resources from them.

    in Canada, the older people are usually healthy looking and living with a chronic disease, I see more people in their 90's than ever. There are more older people than younger people, it gets me curious as to why ?

    the older population is growing. we do not realize that the growing medical needs for the older population are becoming more and more pronounced. A large number of doctors do not specialize in the older population. The medical field does struggle with what the older person needs. for example, not recognizing confusion of the elder person can mean a urinary tract infection. increased falls can mean fluid on the brain and the person may need a cat-scan or MRI, some doctors just say falling is part of the aging process. The older population will need help with understanding medical insurance coverage or understanding their prescription plan. All medical coverage changes at an older age and can be very confusing.

    It's possible to be healthy in some sense while aging, just like you can be healthy with worsening psoriasis. But like psoriasis and other diseases, aging is pathology of the cells or body processes which, if not controlled well enough (and so far the ways to do this are in experimental stages) eventually leads to death, so aging is terminal. No one can intelligently say that's healthy. We need to get aging under medical control. Search Aubrey de Grey, Bill Andrews, Bill Faloon, Janni Lloyd, transhumanist, technology or science political parties.
