 Comments: The elderly can be crucial in passing on family
traditions and a lifetime's worth of wisdom, a bridge between
the youth of today and the beliefs of the past.Well, except
on Tropico. On Tropico, these senior citizens are a
subsection of the population with their own health care needs
and personal desires. They wander the island, so they
notice all of the natural beauty and all of the pollution you
allow. They also have a large family tree beneath them,
so upsetting them can filter through a lot of younger, more
powerful citizens. |
Comments: Ah, retirement... that idyllic period in life when you can
spend the whole day walking around, feeding the seagulls and talking
to the kids. That's what the government calls a freeloader!Be cautious,
though. Your society's elders still have families and strong
political views, as well as time to spread their views. Since
they walk around all day, they also see a lot. Sure, they
don't pose the same threat as the military or the rebels, but if you
have time, it might not be unwise to look after their needs anyway.
