In USA TODAY's article "The underlying duel of 2012: Seniors vs. Millennials,"
GOP volunteer Immo Sulyok is quoted saying about Election Day: "I'll be there,
or I'll be dead." As will I, but my vote will be for President Obama ("A defining
gap: Seniors for Romney, Millennials for Obama")
I believe that our major concern should be educating our young. It is
unbelievably arrogant for seniors like me to worry about only our welfare,
finances and health. We had our day in the sun. The future generation is being
short-changed by cuts in education spending and the increasing cost of higher
education. We are witnessing the dumbing-down of America.
There is also so much misinformation floating around about the Affordable Care
Act and so much we mere citizens do not understand. Many rely on radio or TV
talk-show hosts to teach us, and unfortunately, the hosts "teach" their opinions.
Perhaps we should still think for ourselves.
Joan LaRose; San Diego
Older voters remember
There is a different sense of history that divides Millennials and those 65 and
older. Older voters remember the Cuban missile crisis, the Cold War and the hot
Korean War and Vietnam conflict.
Seniors served and sacrificed in Korea and Vietnam to defend the free world
against communism. They have seen what communism wrought in Eastern
Europe and Asia.
This brave generation will vote in droves for Mitt Romney to prevent President
Obama from transforming a free America into a socialist or communist one.
Paul Hoylen Jr.; Deming, N.M.
Elderly rely on entitlements
The great majority of older Americans are expected to vote for Mitt Romney,
the Republican nominee for president, in the upcoming election. Ironically,
most of these senior citizens depend heavily on Social Security and Medicare for
survival. Both of these programs were enacted by Democratic presidents and
Congresses controlled by Democrats! What are these seniors thinking?
Bob Hamlett; Nashville
GOP plan causes concerns
While I am 65 years old, I do not support Mitt Romney or any Republican.
("The underlying duel of 2012 Seniors vs. Millennials"). It is surprising to me
that any senior thinks otherwise, given Rep. Paul Ryan's proposed budget that
would mean deep spending cuts.
Also, while President Obama might want to keep lower college loan interest
rates, the task is ultimately that of Congress.
Finally, if Republican volunteer Beverly Rubin, 62, does not want socialized
medicine, then I expect her to not participate in Medicare once she turns 65.
Brian Hoover; Independence, Mo.

Region's Aging Population-BLOGGER springhill care group

http://travisnortham.blogspot.com/2012/09/regions-aging-population-livejournal.html


As the rapid aging of Asia's population creates challenges for governments and
societies, new opportunities are emerging for businesses serving the needs of the
elderly and their caretakers.
While population aging is a global phenomenon, the Asian-Pacific region is
expected to see a particularly drastic demographic change over the next few
decades. The number of elderly persons in the region—already home to more
than half of the world's population aged 60 and over—is expected to triple to
more than 1.2 billion by 2050, when one in four people in the region will be
over 60 years old, according to the United Nations Economic and Social
Commission for Asia and the Pacific.
Across Asia, large corporations and entrepreneurs in various industries are racing
to come up with new products and services for the elderly, while health-care-
related businesses are seeing soaring demand. Among various fields of health
care for the elderly, nursing homes represent one of the fastest-growing sectors.
In Japan, companies that previously had little to do with the issue of aging have
jumped on the bandwagon. In 2005, Watami Co., which operates Japanese-
style izakaya pubs serving food and drinks, entered a new business of running
nursing homes. In the most recent fiscal year, the nursing business was more
profitable than its izakaya business. Demand for Watami's new business is robust
because Japan's population is the world's grayest, according to a 2009 United
Nation report, with nearly 30% aged 60 or older.
Other parts of Asia, such as China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, South Korea and
Singapore, are also anticipating a surge in the percentage of elderly citizens. In
China, people over the age of 60 now account for 13.3% of the country's
population of 1.34 billion, up from 10.3% in 2000, according to the National
Bureau of Statistics, and the aging trend is expected to accelerate.
In January, China's state-run Xinhua news agency wrote about challenges facing
nursing homes, saying "there are simply not enough nurses or beds to
accommodate the country's elderly population."

Guns don’t kill people; people kill people; and people with guns kill even more people.

They also save more people who would otherwise be at the mercy of the criminals.

SPRINGHILL TOWNSHIP, Pa. — An 85-year-old great-grandmother in Fayette County busted a would-be burglar by pulling a gun, then forcing him to call for help while she kept him in her sights.

http://www.thepittsburghchannel.com/news/17232825/detail.htm…

Venus Ramey, 82, confronted a man on her farm in south-central Kentucky last week after she saw her dog run into a storage building where thieves had previously made off with old farm equipment.

Ramey said the man told her he would leave. “I said, ‘Oh, no you won’t,’ and I shot their tires so they couldn’t leave,” Ramey said.

She had to balance on her walker as she pulled out a snub-nosed .38-caliber handgun.

“I didn’t even think twice. I just went and did it,” she said. “If they’d even dared come close to me, they’d be 6 feet under by now.”

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,267540,00.html

Hancock County Sheriff’s Investigator Andre Fizer said about an 84-year-old man’s decision to shoot through a house door at another man who was trying to barge into the house: “You could tell he was devastated. You could tell he was scared.” And rightfully so. Twenty-year-old Wade Ledesma made repeated attempts to break in to the house at about 5 a.m. on July 27, threatening to kill him throughout.

Ledesma “tried to break through the front door and also tried to enter through a back door and a rear window of the residence. The resident called 911 and reported that the intruder was trying to force his way into the home…. [The elderly man] held himself against the door to keep [Ledesma] from entering,” reported the Sun Herald.

The resident became tired from holding the door and, worded about his and his wife’s safety, asked his wife to get his pistol. He fired a shot through the door, meant to merely be a warning shot, and he hit Ledesma in the leg.

And those are just the obvious cases.

A few years ago I was at a talk by a Jewish man from Poland who survived WWII because he was able to escape his home before the Nazis rounded them up and was able to get a gun from a family friend. He said that without a weapon he would not have been able to join the partisans and remain safe. He also would not have survived his first night home after the war as some of his “neighbors” knocked on the door in the middle of the night to “invite” him to join them for a party to celebrate his return. He had his rifle with him and leveled at the men during the conversation as he explained to them that he was tired and would prefer staying home…They didn’t press the matter. But he left the next day and never returned. He heard a few days later that a friend of his was not so prepared and was killed by the “neighbors”.

The movie “Defiance” is yet another reminder to Jews that weapons are not something to fear, but to have handy.

Finally…

In 1928, five years before the rise of Hitler, Germany’s freely elected government enacted a “Law on Firearms and Ammunition.” This law required anyone who owned a firearm, or who wanted to own a firearm, to make themselves known to the authorities. Anyone who wanted to purchase a firearm had to get a “Firearms Acquisition Permit.” If you needed ammunition, you had to get an “Ammunition Acquisition Permit.” When you wanted to go hunting, you had to get an “Annual Hunting Permit.” Every firearm that changed hands professionally had to have a serial number and the maker’s or dealers name stamped into the metal. “Proof of need” was made a condition for issuance of all licenses, not just the carry permit. Mandatory prison sentences were imposed on anyone who professionally sold or transferred a firearm or ammunition without a license. Truncheons and stabbing weapons were subject to the same licensing requirements as firearms, in terms of their manufacture and sale.

As a result of the 1928 Law, all firearms and firearms owners were registered. To take firearms from anyone they distrusted, the Nazis simply did not renew permits. Under the law, their privately created law, the Nazis could now easily confiscate all firearms and ammunition from any, or all, selected groups. The gun law of 1928 had served the Nazis well. It made almost all law abiding firearms owners known to the authorities. The 1928 law on firearms and ammunition helped the Nazis to destroy democracy in Germany, by disarming the law abiding majority, whom they feared.

A right to bear arms is the fundamental right of every law-abiding person to acquire the means to protect themselves even from their own government. One of the first things a government does when it wants to control its citizenry is to control their access to the weapons they need to defend themselves.
