Hunt them down and shame them.

I wonder how many are people that just retired?

An analyst at the Federal Reserve has written that 80% of the decline since 2012 is due to retirement. And also he wrote that 65% of the decline since 2000 is due to both retirement and disability.

But, I think this overlooks that a lot of the retirements and disability claims are desperation responses to losing a job in your 60's or even late 50's.

I’m one of them. I had the opportunity to retire early and I took it.
