    If compensation was based on accomplishment I would not want the old people I work with breaking their backs to keep up with someone like me ya know.

    Old people should be retired and living on a pension, and young people should at least be guaranteed a decent standard of living. That would fix a ton of the problem you're describing.

      Oh 100%. I feel some kind of way about all the 50 and 60 year old guys who have to work alongside me. If my back is aching I just know there’s have got to be killing them 24/7. They deserve better at that age than to have to sell their rapidly deteriorating bodies
