Description[?]:
| The current professional retirement age is set at 60 years, an age even lower that Otto von Bismarrck set in the German social reforms ages ago. The average age of the population is rising and the costs of our not working elders won't be able to maintain if this continues. |

| Message | 67? That's a bit high. 62, maybe, but really, seeing 65 year olds with heart problems, lung cancer, and arthritis working in health-shops is inhumane. |
| Date | 00:18:27, May 17, 2005 CET | From | Opinion Poll Vultures | To | Debating the Professional retirement age |
| Message | perhaps 65? |
| Date | 00:37:28, May 17, 2005 CET | From | Catholic Peoples Party | To | Debating the Professional retirement age |
| Message | We see that the step from 60 to 67 is indeed big and maybe too big at once, therefor we put 65 to the vote. |
