Let's put some flesh and skin on this beast
You are proposing to sentence all the elderly of Australia to indefinite confinement in their rest homes, with no chance of discharge other than in a box, and no chance of remission of sentence? Seems a little harsh as a reward for decades of faithful taxpaying and community contribution.
You are telling my Dad that he must observe (it would certainly not be celebrate) his one hundredth birthday in the company only of his wife of seventy years, without any of their four children, ten grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. That is certainly not the Australia he chose to live in after six years of war service, including combat flying in both Indian and Pacific Ocean theatres.
Shame on you
