Yep this is a dumb article and the writer should not embarrass himself and writes part 2 and 3 on this subject. Boomers are working because they need to work and many are not retiring at the age of 65 because of the bad economic times we are living in. Also many companies prefer now the older, more experienced, more productive work force over the inexperienced and very entitled mentality of younger workers who they think they are going to make huge salaries by barely working and in the first two years of their jobs... Moreover a majority of college graduates today have worthless arts degrees that are not worth a shit.

According to some it is not just the arts graduates, one freeper who says he hires engineers posted that he has had electrical engineering graduates apply who didn’t know ohm’s law. That is equivalent to a carpenter not being able to identify a nail or a dairy farmer not recognizing a cow. One thing is for certain, the history majors turned out by our local university don’t know the history that I learned in grade school, they have proven that to me in person. I used to hear that a history major was only good if you wanted to TEACH history, apparently now it is possible to get a job teaching history without knowing anything about the subject.
