40, 50 is the new 50 and its okay. We ought to be comfortable with what age we are. That middle age is really extending well beyond 60 and 65 with this increased longevity. People are living 20 or 30 years longer than they ever anticipated what does that mean Public Policy wise . Guest it has huge implications for Public Policy and for cities, not only in the us but around the world. When Social Security was originally put in place some 80 years ago, lifeexpectancy was around 62. Youve got to work until your 62 and you are likely to die when you were 67 or 68. Today, the fastestgrowing age group in this country is people over the age of 85 and the second is over the age of about 100 three we are living really 20 or 30 years longer than our parents or grandparents did so as we think about Public Policy, about not only Social Security and medicare but mobility and this whole wealth of brainpower that is just sitting there in their 60s and 70s and 80s, how can we as society engage the 50

Thatd passed the point africanamericans would say, if you think thats the best thing, thats what we are going to do. Please. [laughter] durant puther
This research . It was because i feel at the time of Ronald Reagan, accomplished so much. I mentioned restoring pride in america, creating a booming economy. And bringing freedom to millions in Eastern Europe and the phoenix communism, which in my opinion is the most important historical event of the second half of the 20th century. We do not have thousands of Nuclear Missiles aimed at us, at least from russia anymore. Life in the late 1940s, 1950s, 1960s, was involved in fighting communism. But the cold war. Proxy wars here and there, korea, vietnam, many other examples. It wasnt present like that in the 1960s. That communist and at the berlin wall, communism and i will end with this, many people think that the first time ronald called for the berlin war to be torn down, when he yelled, mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall. Thats not when it happened. It was 1967 during a televised kennedy, itrobert was a question that Ronald Reagan answered and on may 15, 1967 call to tear down the lan
