Dystopia for the many who have to support the eutopia for old age pensioners. The protagonist is a 145-year-old woman in one of the many walled compounds set aside for seniors who are living on their pensions, which are paid by the young. The Exodus is a jumpship about to leave with thousands of the young happy to take a chance on finding a livable planet where they will be able to work for themselves rather than just to support the Seniors.
