Why on earth should we accept a 'real age' consistent with 65 back in the 1930's? Has nothing gotten better since the 30s? Has not worker productivity increased by many multiples?
Please, we should be talking about lowering the retirement age, working hours, increasing wages, and providing health care. Accepting this nonsense about reducing quality of life to increase profits for the owning class is just idiotic.
If you reduced the amount of people working so that total productivity would be the same as the 30s, you'd get 30s living standards.
The precise point was that productivity has improved
far, far more than have living standards for workers, Bomo. Please try to read posts and understand before replying.
