    In a capitalist system, Darwinism prevails. Only the fastest, strongest and most capable will survive. Years of experience and knowledge is not able to compete with the rapid changes required by business today. It is vital that an individual be able to adapt to the changes and be in a constant state of learning.

  2. Lee says:

    With the average women living past the age of 80 and men living to 75, it would be better to let people work longer. This is especially true for women who need to make up the time they spent raising kids and out of work. After all with a longer life expectancy, women need more in their retirement nest egg then men.

    i think they should be allowed to work over 65 if they have to. in the summer i work at a factory and there is a woman there who is 81. she has to go everyday so she can afford her husbands perscriptions. she said she would love not to work there any more but her financial state won’t allow it.
