Why Politicians Trying to Raise the Age of Retirement is a Bad Idea

She has a cushy office job. She needs to understand the strains a lifetime of physical labour does to a blue collar worker. My son is 30 and has terrible back issues already as a builder and electrician for the last 12/13 years

It’s not even safe to push the retirement age out farther for the worker and for the people who need their services. And for some people you’re saying pay into Social Security your whole life but never draw from it. Work till you die.

[celieboo]

This doctor sees through their cruelty.

[zenandtheartofskateboarding]

insane how we have so much hard science that proves productivity and gdp would actually increase with a 4 day work week and a lower retirement age, but for some reason we still glorify spending your whole life at work.

[aprildawnfranklin]

No bring back 55 !!!! That’s what my grandparents had

[marielpadilla]

There’s already people my grandpas age working till they can no longer move or do what they used to do now they want to make it even longer?? They definitely want people to die before they get to enjoy any amount of their life

This so called SS Guarantee needs to stop. This is never be about how to sustain the people who are unfit for service of the Nation. Rather this should be about how to get the younger generation into the workforce earlier. The later u get them engaged, the more the drugs alcoholism n violence. Which SS will pay for that ?!

[danielroque]

Says a woman who's never worked a day in her life...real work!!

[mikehollydennis]

No. What you all need to do is quit taking money from the Social Security fund to pay for all your projects. There need to be major oversight on these big ticket expenditures and put the money back into social security and leave it alone. They also need to get rid of the maximum income for which Social security will be taxed.

This "Republican Says the Quiet Part Out Loud" series is fast becoming my favorite..

[juanfuerte]

Or, we could have wealthy people pay their fair share of taxes.

[SweetSkies]

Properly tax the top wealthy… but ofc their bribed by them to strongly oppose that🤣🤣

[enterthevoid]

Bad idea but why you need tonbring race into the argument

[adamcooke]

Ugh this woman really makes me angry!!

[BtheProfBowens]

That’s was and is the point of the program! ✌🏾✊🏾🖖🏾🇺🇸

[adamcooke]

How can a 60 year old man keep up with a 25 year old man in the work force!! This woman is evil!!

[Ratboy]

The just want to 1 keep us working and 2 keep using our money.

[bethfinne]

At 55, I can't do what I did back in my 20s and 30s. I'm working part time. And when I get to the point I can't work anymore, then I'm not. I refuse to engage in nonsense.

[tonytea]

I don’t respect her. It should be lowered.
