Given that life expectancy and quality of life have improved since the original age of 75 was put in place, some cardinals have suggested the possibility of postponing the legal age of retirement to 80.
Surprise, surprise. In my opinion, they ought to lower it to 70.

Indeed! Hard to be surprised by such a suggestion, given the large number of cardinals who are so close to the "out to pasture" age right now.

Yeah, I'll bet the cardinals suggesting it are at or near 75.
