>But we also have, I believe, the largest population of people older than conventional work age. I don't think these statistics account for retirement. To really compare, we'd need to do some adjusting for those who've retired by choice.

>I expect nothing less from you. There are so many people retiring from choice. That is why I see all these 70 year olds at Walmart welcoming me to the store. I understand why, with your world view, you would think that most people are leaving the work force voluntarily. Not everyone in this country is as privileged as you are.
Are you saying that with the largest population of seniors we've ever had, there isn't an unprecedented number of voluntarily retired people. My inlaws live in a senior community where, at 88 and 86, they're not even close to the oldest folks around.
