An article from the bbc. But could have some plot ideas.

I'm sure they'll just hook them up to simsense, they can just lull around in their fantasy lands, consisting of baking cakes and whatever the hell it is that old people do.

2060 will have commonplace coffin nursing homes.

Nah, once you hit 65 your kidnapped off the street and taken to a deltaware clinic. Once there you are outiftted with extensive combat cyberware, and fed a constant stream of combat drugs.

You are then taken to one of many secret arenas where the illuminati and freemasons place bets on illeagal deathmatches between elderly cyber-gladiators (who have illusions cast on them making their opponent appear as pot-smoking teenagers on their lawn).

These matches are used to determine the outcome of most of the worlds elections.
