Bernie Sanders Invite Bush To Go Fuck Himself

The fundamental stupidity about that global discussion over raising the retirement age is, that companies simply don't recruit senior citizens or they try to get rid of them. Too expensive compared to the usual pitance they're willing to pay.
It's a smoke screen since these people go straight for the unemployment line. RE: Bernie Sanders Invite Bush To Go Fuck Himself

A world in which the working class is expected to die before achieving full benefits, or, on the odd chance that they have a year or two of life left, that they don't draw.
-The world we live in...that's the world he(and his billionaire backers) lives in, Mr Sanders.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
Most (?) private plans offer differing retirement age options v/ payout, I wouldn't mind have options with SS too.
They would have to be 'actuarially sound' (whatever that means) options, from my viewpoint. Curious admission: I don't have a problem with means testing, although if they did it I would most likely have a loss of benefits. I'm not thrilled with pensioners pissing away their SS checks at the casino, but that is a different thread . . . . The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Ever stroll thru and watch the catatonic compulsive vacant stares of the pensioners?
It's like looking at death. The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

I'm rather apalled by lilac hair and their outfits than their gambling habits. As I said, if you can't take it with you ...

I remember my grandparents, and they were mentally sharp pretty much to the end. The three who made it to their eighties were more alive at 80 than quite a few people are ever. Also, they were physically in decent shape, very good for their age. As for gambling, every time I have visited a casino (which has been only a few times, and never something I particularly wanted to do), the stares are generally vacant for those at the slot machines, no matter what the age of the idiots wasting their money. I find the experience of visiting a casino revolting on multiple levels. One more thing: My grandparents never gambled, as far as I know.
