Default Billionaire sees massive problem caused by aging, and here's my question
Can you give some (non-political) ideas on how to solve this problem?

I'll start the discussion with this suggestion: One idea might be called "tough love". No more useless medical procedures for lifestyle diseases such as heart bypass operations for coronary artery disease. This is a huge expense and is only one of many. Hundreds of billions of dollars are spent every year for diseases that are caused by poor lifestyle choices.
