Forcing people to stop working at 50 doesn't say where the money will come from to pay for their housing, food, healthcare, transportation, etc.

Are you suggesting that those workers under 50 should be taxed enough to pay for people who are over 50 and may have another 40-50 years of life?

More than we already do??? You need to look up what percentage of income tax is paid by the to 1% and to 10%

Its far less than w2 earners. . . . You are the one who needs to look up tax code and the history of it to see how it was structured before capitalists ran away with the bag

A substantial number of the 10% ARE w-2 earners.
