IMO, "encourage" means, "if you want your social security and socialized medicine benefits, you'll do what we tell you to do."

Agree — I should’ve read all posts before posting my question............
I guess the “seniors” will be mopping govt. buildngs and sweeping streets like they did in the old Soviet Union back in the seventies when I was there. Shameful!!!!!!!!
And that is what concerns me.
In only a few more years I will probably retire, and when I do, I don’t want to be bothered. I want to be left alone,
I worked my entire life and when I retire, I want to enjoy my life, enjoy what I EARNED, and not be “encouraged” to do something I don’t want to.
Want to slow down retirements and clog up the work force and reduce opportunities for the younger workers? Easy. All you need do is “encourage” retirees to do something they have no interest in and, most likely, will not be paid for.
If I want to get up every day and toil away on something, by gawd, it will be for me and for a price.
Getting ourselves into a non-cash-based economy as quickly as possible is my goal, if we can find neighbors in our rural area who aren’t sold out Democrat/Communists for Obama. I know some of our neighbors were willing to throw us under the bus and kick us to the curb for Clinton’s sake. I doubt they can figure out exactly what their blind Clinton worship has wrought. I hope there are some who can read the signs of the times.
