That’s how I got back in the workforce, albeit at a significantly lower rate. Nobody wants an older (50+) person anymore . . .

Are you kidding? In general people under 50 are the ones who have been convinced they are "entitled."

It am surprised they would care about age for a contract position, if that is what you mean by rate. They don’t like to hire older employees because of medical costs and career path, but usually a contractor is just a body to do a job.

Maybe rates are down overall?

Yep, and over 60 is worse.
