The problem is we’re not fixing the economy at the other end. People work later because they’re healthier, and that could be good… but that means more people doing the same amount of work, increasing unemployment.

Until we stop demonising non-work and that’s going to be hell for those stuck on it. Get some level of basic income so it’s a valid choice. Meanwhile in the UK our govermnent is appealing to the boomers by announcing increased punishment of the unemployed… We’re a long way from that.
