Товарищу Эмануэлю - большое человеческое спасибо за лишние 4 года радости труда

Это не Рам, а его братан Шиам Зик придумал: Instead of uniformly cutting benefits for America's elderly, Emanuel argues that the nation should institute a graduated eligibility age for both Social Security and Medicare that is based on lifetime personal earnings:

People in the bottom half of the lifetime earnings distribution would become eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 65 for Medicare and 66 for Social Security, just as they are today. But people in the next quarter of the lifetime earnings distribution would become eligible for the respective programs at 67 and 68, and those in the top quarter would become eligible at 70 and 71. All eligibility ages would increase over time, as they are scheduled to now.

Но есть одна недоработка. Тем, кто работал через пень колоду или не работал совсем, надо выдавать Medicare and Social Security лет с 55, я щетаю. В награду за недополученное удовлетворение от труда на благо общества.

В Австралии лет десять назад (как теперь - не знаю), государственную пенсию при наличии определенного дохода совсем не платили, хотя пенсиооные взносы платили все.

Вот она - высшая справедливость.
