Egalitarian and Eighty
As an eighty year old I believe in equality
An eight year old, or eighteen, is not equal to me.
They have not had their lives.
If in hospital generally fit youth and generally fit age should have their share of readily available care.
If that care is in short supply then it is beyond doubt that youths should have priority, in order that they may achieve their equality in longevity.

equality in longevity ...

if longevity is nothing but time, perhaps...

the experiences within said time of the one are never the same as the experiences within said time of the other...

did you see that?
