In 1900 the life expectancy in America was 47 years old, while 50 years later it was 68 years old and in 2019 it was 79 years old! But according to the Brookings Institute, America has a shortage of workers because the 55 and older folks retired during the pandemic. I retired today at 71 years old.
Over the last century modern medicine has extended American life by a whopping 32 years but people still retire at younger and younger ages! In France there were major protests over just raisng the retirement age from 62 to 64. Come 2030 Social Security will be bankrupt once a week!
And that is al I”m going to say about that!
