Old age is a joy

The federal television channels are sung together by the upcoming "pension changes"

Channel One announced the start of the first season of the main vocal show of the country "Voice 60+". In the presentation video posted on the channel’s website, they represent the casting participants - “people who will not give 40”. Previously, the show “Voice” distinguished children into a separate “reservation” (which is logical). Now only the old people go into battle.

The start of the new project happily coincided with the upcoming pension reform, which on federal channels is called "a change in pension legislation." Only so and nothing else.

The words “old age”, “old people”, and even more so - “survival age”, will probably also be banned soon.

The program “Time” has already come up with an elegant definition of what was called old age: “Silver age”. And the very topic of raising the retirement age is served with enthusiasm and enthusiasm:

“To increase the living standards of the older generation, changes in pension legislation are called upon. However, many in this “silver age” decided to create their own business. What are the results of an alloy of energy and experience? "

The heroes of the plot from different parts of the country are divided by these results. Galina Ivanova, at the age of 57, was able to embody the cherished dream - she opened a small her own store. "As my son says to me: Mom, you are fire." The director of the agricultural enterprise near Sevastopol Mikhail Hosh and the pensioner himself, and is gaining older people to the team. And the master of artistic forging Alexander Lysyakov from Yekaterinburg leads the largest blacksmith workshop in the Urals, quoting the words of the song: “Old age will not find me at home. I'm on the road, I'm on the way. "

Elena Malysheva in the “Live Great” program in her inherent positive manner exclaimed: “Youth lasts up to 60 years, and if you work for a long time, then good health can be preserved after this age.” “That's how old are you? She turned to an overweight elderly man from the public. "60. The 61st went, ”he answered.

“60 years! Cried Elena Malysheva. - Your youth is just over. The maturity has come. Today we avoid the word "old age". According to the classification of the World Health Organization - up to 60 youth. ”

The heroine of the cult film “Moscow does not believe in tears”, Katerina performed by Vera Alentova said: “At the age of 40, life is just beginning.” It seems that the time has come, according to the new attitudes, its monologue is re -calling: "At 60, life is just beginning." And all the joys of this life are available to people of “silver age”: if you want - open your own business, if you want - travel, dance until you drop, but if you want to give birth at all.

The main folk current show of the country “let them talk”, which came under the heading “old age”, also joined the propaganda of these very life-giving pension changes.

“In this studio today, a woman who denied all myths that there is an age when it is no longer possible to give birth. Galina Shubenina gave birth to 60 ... It turns out, and the laws of nature are changing. Galina not only gave birth, but also breastfeed! " - the presenter Dmitry Borisov was filled with a nightingale.

In previous years, few representatives of the older generation, who decided to “change the laws of nature” and give birth, fell into the field of view of the program “Let them talk”. I remember the lonely pensioner from Chernigov, who had nothing to live on, but who gave birth to a girl after 60.

So she was condemned by experts present in the studio - they say, where did the doctors and social protection look? "Have you thought about the future of your girl?"

Now, as one guests of the program, literally proceeded with emotion and joy: “You are a huge clever! Do you want to continue? There will also be maternity capital! What a well done! An example to everyone! "

“At any age, you can marry, be happy,” the host bent his line. - Look, wedding! A flowering person with a flowering beauty nearby. "

“Blooming man” Artist Ivan Krasko, who married his student at his student 60 years younger and repeatedly became the hero of the scandalous television show in connection with suspicions of the incorrectness of the young wife, nodded rather: “I do not feel like an old man!”

TV presenter Anna Shatilova was indignant: "When they write" old age "in a pension certificate - this is a huge humiliation, this is an insult."

“We throw the term“ age of survival ”into the trash,” Dmitry Borisov summed up with optimism.

Vladimir Pozner, recently said goodbye to the audience until the fall, specially returned from the vacation for the sake of interviews with the first deputy head of government and Minister of Finance Anton Siluanov. Vladimir Vladimirovich - the most bright illustration of the creative and physical capabilities of “silver age” - also avoided the phrase “pension reform”, did not particularly polemize with the guest, did not ask questions on behalf of “his friend Marseille Proust” and only in his traditional “farewell” he allowed himself a light front.

“No need to listen to when we campaign. It is necessary to turn on the brain and think carefully. This is my advice to you. ”

Excellent advice, only nothing but agitation in favor of the upcoming changes in the pension system, there is no one on the federal broadcast. And “rain” and other network channels telling about protest moods and promotions in different cities of the country are not available to most of the population. And if they are available, then we, as they say, are lazy and are not curious: until the thunder breaks - the man does not cross. And what network channels can be compared with federal TV in terms of latitude of coverage, the scale of propaganda and an inexhaustible creative?

The same Channel One, in addition to the vocal show “Voice 60+”, how many more in the reserve of projects, which can also be successfully involved in explanatory work with the population. For example, the ice show “Ice Age” (despite some ambiguity of the name in relation to people of “silver age”). Or the program “Let's get married” - everyone wants love, regardless of years. Or Yakubovich’s show "I can." True, the “age” show of Maxim Galkin is “older than all” (by analogy with the children's project “best”) somehow did not go from the audience. Perhaps because it resembled a freak show and caused a feeling of awkwardness for the old people ... Sorry, representatives of the “silver age” who made simple gymnastic figures on the wrong gouty legs or derived the romance of Dargomyzhsky “I was 16 years old ...”.

However, the installation has changed: the elderly everywhere we have a road. Old age is a joy. At least on the TV. I recall the old old man who, watching the filming of the “Kuban Cossacks”, asked Yuri Lyubimov: “This is from what life, son?”
