What?  If not for the capitalist class, no one would distinguish between age
groups?  Although such age distinctions vary from culture to culture (for
instance, many don't recognize adolescence), I suspect that the existence of
distinctions based on age is a cultural universal.  They comprise a
cognitive short-cut too handy to abandon.
