Message | Could you please elaborate, Congressman? While, we understand that this would mean more elderly people receiving pensions, we do not foresee a direct negative impact on the economy. If anything this would mean more productive capacity, by having young laborers instead of 64 year olds. We must also pay a special respect to those at disadvantages in our country. Such as the old man who works a difficult job waiting to one day be able to retire. We could shorten his misery, and give his job to someone who is currently unemployed. |
