And it's 70 for almost 10 years in Italy!

That's pretty f*cked up. Sure, there are some jobs where you can make a decent contribution at that age – historian? librarian? sure, why not. But please don't force bus drivers to keep working until that age

In Italy there are classes of jobs that still allow to go earlier. It's not flat.

hey no fair. you're comparing a fascist shit hole

It's way before this government. It's just that to pay pensions you need people. And there are few compared to the old ones.

So or get the pension or retire earlier without money 😒

73 for me in the US! I'll likely be dead before I get to see retirement...

I should note, that's tge projected date for my retirement plan. The "official" age is still 65...
