those who started working early,

18 is starting work early? I got my first pay envelope and paid my first SS taxes at age 11.

I bought a HW-101 from Heathkit with those pennies I earned that summer. And spent the entire winter putting it together and troubleshooting it.

Otherwise it would just be justice right? Social justice implies there's a role for redistribution in there.

Francois Hollande to reverse the rise in the retirement age

Should read "Francois Hollande to reverse REALITY"

But what the hey, he gets a few more votes and France goes bankrupt a couple of years sooner.
