Summary

This quote highlights the stark contrast between the way we care for the elderly and the way we treat prisoners in society. It suggests that if the same level of attention and resources provided in prisons were also given to the elderly, our society would be transformed. It emphasizes the need for society to prioritize and improve the care and support systems for its aging population, envisioning a world where the elderly are valued and their well-being is prioritized to an extent similar to that shown toward prisoners.
