Those over 65 but still working need to become fierce advocates for real job growth. Shipping jobs overseas must become a thing of the past and real job growth at home a number one priority.
The government and medical community can help by creating a new diagnosis - Adult Energy Deficit Disorder (AEDD). This will justify the introduction of very low cost stimulant medications at a non-addictive dose to help people through the day and keep them working. In this scenario, the over-65 employee will be the most desirable. They must work and they'll work hard with a real attention to detail.
Finally, large numbers of people will be working well beyond what we've seen previously. Mortality and morbidity will kick in, lowering life expectancy.
With 20% to 30% more people dumping the notion of retirement and a faster die off rate among that group, Social Security will be solvent in a matter of years.
It's time to act boldly. No mandates. No laws. All it takes is never-ending hard work based on the realities of our time.
It's a grand life if you don't weaken.
