“Nope it is just the way it is.”

What if I disagree?

that's fine but you will find more and more companies hiring two young employees with no experience for an older employee with more experience.

In today's America, if your over 45 or 50 and lose your job or career....You're most likely really screwed.

Yes and no

BS....Ya better pull yourself back into the real world...

Ya lose your career or job at 50, for the most part, your medical benefits if ya have any, your income, job security, etc are done, over, and it aint coming back, unless you get extremely lucky, or your family owns a business etc.

In fact, you lose your job or carreer at that age today, when and if your rehired anywhere, you income will be slashed to 1994 wages, and they'll tell ya to pay for your own medical etc.

As I said, if your 45 or 50 in this country today, and lose your job....For the most part.....YOUR DONE...

Don't believe me? As the first guy ya see at that age, that lost his a$$ in this meat grinder.

I give you extreme credit for not speaking of not having 'health care insurance' though.

You give me credit?

I give you an F for failing to see and admit the obvious.

Health care for today's American family is a utter joke, that takes either the wife or husband working nearly full time to to pay for.

Where ya been?

Are you referring to Health CARE or Health INSURANCE?

I've been around for longer than most of my family.

Why is our health care a joke?

Sorry, I don't believe you. 45~50? If you aren't terminal (or someone in your family), get on with your life.

If there is illness in your family, my apologies and best wishes.

Because the cost has gone through the roof, and few in the working class can no longer afford it, if they still have benefits or coverage

You live in a cave? Or do you just play the stupid role?
