Other major drivers behind the boom in older employees include that workers are healthier and less likely to have a disability, and face increasingly steeper financial challenges. Inflation, changes in pension systems and “less generous” Social Security benefits, Fry says, have workers feeling obligated to work longer.
Older workers "still being healthy" is survivorship bias. The ones who aren't still healthy aren't in the fucking workplace, they're either hospitalized or dead.
"Obligated." Nobody feels "obligated" to work. We feel like we will die on the fucking streets in our old age because we have a broken fucking system that discards us entirely once we are no longer able to produce economic output.
Obligated my ass, people just want to stay alive, Emmy Lucas of Forbes. Eat shit, Emmy.
