[quote=Anonymous]Um... when the retirement age of 65 was instituted in the 1930ties, the average life expectancy was only 58 years for men and 62 for women (they were higher for whites and lower for POC). The population of over 65+ was only 5.4%. Only about 5% of elders were expected to draw SS for 5+ years and less than 1% 20 years. Having your parents alive in your 60-70ties indeed was almost unheard of. [/quote]
