Let's start negotiating for this then: mandatory retirement at 50, paid for by social security taxes on remaining workers. Deal?

    Paid for by social security taxes on millionaires and up.

    We should remove the cap on social security taxes to keep the SSA solvent, and also to be fair rather than regressive, but that's still not gonna cover retirements at 50.

    I agree, it's not the full answer, but It's a good start.

    Maybe instead of forced retirement, forced fewer hours? Heck, maybe a debt bailout for primary residence, student loans and any other life needing debt at 50, lower the age of Medicare to... 0, and I could start living off of very little dollars.
