Stebbijo: If 70 is the new fifty then I suggest that Labrador and some of the folks who have yet to experience age - take a weeks vacation at a nursing home and make those poor suckers get out of bed and go to work. He has lost his frigging mind - needs cane and walker flogged. Disability claims will climb to new heights unless there are jobs for folks to sit and fold napkins - half the people won’t be able to see well enough to drive and get to work, let alone walk or drive a bicycle. You don’t even see this age working in hospital positions. It’s rare.
