I smell a rat, specifically a conservative rat who can't stand the idea of anyone getting  a break in life except them. If anything I think the retirement age should be lowered to 62. What are we, chattel for the mill, to have every ounce of life squeezed out of us before we are allowed out to pasture? BS. This seems to me just another attempt to undermine the Social Security/Medicare system. Samuelson can work till he drops since he just sits on his ass all day thinking deep thoughts about how the rest of us should fall on our swords for the good of the country.
