Q: What aren't people talking enough about?

A: How 70-80 year olds are generally regarded as unemployable due to mental decline / skill mismatch - yet they're exclusively running the country.

a US study showed that nearly two-thirds of workers aged 45 and older had seen or experienced age discrimination. But younger workers face age discrimination, too. In fact, new research shows it may actually be the youngest team members who are bearing the brunt of workplace ageism right now, potentially impacting on their careers.

So basically, you have to be between 35 and 45 to be considered competent. Old Millennial or Young Gen X.
