    They didn’t take early retirement.

      who gave up work during the pandemic

      This is what happens when you quickly scan articles looking for ways to dunk on people without actually grasping the content of the piece.

      Also, you’re coming at me as though I support what the article is saying. I don’t. I just don’t have the greatest sympathy for people with enough wealth to think they can retire at 50. Even if the retirement is a little tighter than they thought.

        They didn’t retire, they were forced to quit work. They’re not getting a pension and they’re not eligible for sickness benefits.

        But you go ahead and fall for the fantasy that it’s going to affect the rich people you don’t like. That’s exactly why they’re flying this kite. Mug.

          If they were forced out why is there an article about trying to coax them back into work? If they needed to work they would presumably be trying to find work rather than sitting retired having the capitalist class trying to think of ways to make them get back on the production floor. These are people with at least some money.
