"Our forefathers would laugh at what girlymen most of us have become."

So true...

Quote from 1prometheus:

Is it possible the obsession with "retirement" is some type of mass delusion or mental illness? Where in human history is there a divine right to a "retirement".

U work try to have a good life then when the time comes you die. The retirement is the great carrot that the corporate-state uses to motivate individuals to slave away doing meaningless work for the majority of their lives.

It is much like the healthcare issue. We live in the safest time in human history yet people are obsessed with healthcare. Our forefathers would laugh at what girlymen most of us have become.
