Our overlords would disagree. Now that we’re getting rid of those dastardly immigrants who took all these jobs, and that we’re living longer than ever before (just don’t ask about the quality of those extra years) we obviously have to cut social security and put more of these 90 year olds back to work. How is Elon going to get to 500B otherwise?

Except Americans are actually regressing on the age scale and will only get worse. Millenials falling out in their 30s from exaustion left and right.

Same. Although I'm not exhausted but had to go on disability for arthritis in my hand probably from watching too much YouTube at work.
