I agree, interesting European oriented view point where other cultures treat their elderly differently.

Suggest watching the interview at the end first to give the film makers point of view..

Surprising anyone here would agree to be filmed given the history. Those who did seemed a little atypical.

Favorite comment was the farmer who said he could make more money planting Yankees than watermelons :-)

Wish they would include things like the charter schools and discuss the positive economc impact creating thousands of good paying jobs as a result of the multi billion dollars a year financial engine.
