Sure there are some jobs working at 60-70 yrs old aren't that big a problem. But for many Americans their body isn't up to the task of 9 to 5 40-60 hr work weeks. People may be living longer but that was suppose to allow them to enjoy a few more autumn years, not to push every ounce of juice from them before pushing them off to the great beyond. They should just remove the income cap on SS and if they have to place a progressive escalator on it. The USA has more than enough GNP to allow its citizens to enjoy a modest retirement before death.
