2. Entitlements, aid to the poor |

3. Raise medicare eligibility? |
|
Nice. Cause it's not like employers are shunning older workers in favor of younger workers who will accept less pay and with potentially less health care issues. What are people supposed to do between age 50 and 67? Rely on medicaid? O wait....
