>>but raise the retirement age for those under 40 to 70
The problem with that is that not everyone is a web page designer or cubical worker. What do you tell the power plant or factory or construction worker who just isn’t management material—and even if HE was, HE has little chance of promotion in this day. Those people have a hard time making it to 65.
Even if you added an “unable to perform your job = automatic disability without delay” clause, then you’d just have the office workers retiring at 55 with carpal tunnel syndrome.
I agree with you about the 70 year old retirement age, but it needs to be something that takes into account what a person did to their body to get a paycheck for those 50 years of work.
of course i’m a cube guy so i didn’t think of that.
My wife’s pop worked even with diabetes till 70 but just barely.
if the loss of energy from 48 to 68 is the same as the energy i lost between 28 and 48, then wow, yeah, i can see where you’re coming from.
be all driverless in 10 years anyway. ya think? i can’t keep up with that
