It is the height of self-contradictory policy that we simultaneously have an old-age pension system going broke because too many people are retiring, a problem of too many people in their 60's and 70's feeling undervalued and underused, and a shortage of skilled workers. Surely modest policy changes could incentivize people to stay in the workforce if they want to, and incentivize employers not to push their older and most skilled workers out the door.
