[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 5746751, member: 24302"] And you've told us repeatedly that you would take away needed income from hundreds of millions of people when they're too old to work. That frontline workers are lazy, or incompetent, or unintelligent, that their value to an organization is minimal. You're a greedy SOB which describes at least half of all management types imo. You've repeatedly misstated the definition of life expectancy to the point of either being extraordinarily stupid or you're being deceptive because you believe you can get one over on us simpletons. A hallmark of managers everywhere. Life expectancy is the average of all deaths. It isn't lifespan. If in 1940 a newborn has the life expectancy of 62, it doesn't mean he will get old and die by 62 on average. It means with so many young adults and children dying from diseases at that time it brought the overall average(life expectancy) down to 62. You said that with the age to collect Social Security at 65 most wouldn't live long enough to collect it or to live in poverty. And when you discovered that yes according to the census there were millions older than 65 in 1940 then you started CYAing. And as always you have to resort to personal attacks to discredit because your arguments don't hold up. I have never supported socialism to replace capitalism. But I have said that one of the problems with capitalism is it's exploitive. And those with the power often have no problem exploiting others for their own personal gain. Sometimes laws have to be put in place to protect people. It's why we have unions, which you would do away with in a heartbeat. And why Social Security was created. Otherwise people like you would use people up and cast them aside without anything to show for years of faithful service. You've made that very clear with your criticism of older couriers. You're nothing but a Darwinian capitalist. [/QUOTE]
