I will present a discussion on how wellbeing of older people should be assessed, what is unjust about ageism, and what some implications are of the inequalities in health and wellbeing among older people. While there has been much attention given in the United States about rationing healthcare with respect to older people, this discussion focuses on background conditions of injustice over the life course and the impacts on claims to health and wellbeing later in life.
