Why Not 95?

George Will, a prominent columnist, thinks that the best way to ensure the nation's financial future is to push the age for eligibility for Social Security retirement benefits to 74 and to force the elderly to buy their own insurance instead of relying upon Medicare. In fact, he is not so sure that elderly people should even be receiving much in the way of medical care anyway. Interesting talk from a man of his age.

It's easy for people who work at desk jobs, such as George Will (and me) to propose raising the retirement age. Tell it to the 62 year old working on a factory line.
