AIG's Benmosche, Speaking From His Seaside Villa, Says World Will Need To Retire At 80
The other government-sponsored Ben-with-a-beard was in contemplative mood as the CEO of AIG relaxed at his Croatian seaside villa in a recent Bloomberg TV interview. Benmosche stated that "Retirement ages will have to move to 70, 80 years old" as that "would make pensions, medical services more affordable... taking the burden off of the youth." Opining on Greece (well, the Greek people really): "they have to see that there is no easy way out of this" and the government must get them to work longer (Greek life expectancy is 81.3 years so there's plenty of hours left for retirement). Towing his corporate over-lord status quo line, he notes that Greece abandoning the euro could be a disaster for the country but we assume if only they would work 23 hours-a-day for 81 years at a 95% tax rate then TROIKA will be more than happy to use them as a rotating receptacle for European bank holdings.

fucking scum
Good luck getting a Boomer to retire that late in life.
In reality, i think Plan A for the bankers is to kill off most people before they can enjoy retirement... of course, have to let the medical system and big pharma suck every last dollar out them first.
Yerp, I can here that sucking sound now...
I predict that by 2017, the retirement age is going to be 138.
thats a nice fucking pad paid for by the US taxpayer bailout
looks like the slaves will have to work til 80+ to pay for it
something tells me these "elites" are awakening a sleeping giant
Great Post, but what we should be talking about is, can we even keep people working till 80?
This current job market couldn't even support someone working till 80. Retirees go down, and now a low number of new jobs open up.
This is not a real good solution.

the woman who bagged my groceries saturday for 45 minutes had to be damn close to 80
plenty of room for 80 year old baggers since it takes them five times as long, there will be a need for five times as many of them
....making one fifth what they need to afford their medication
You guys are so mean. *somebody* has to do the hard job of being "consumer" and "fucking-fat-rich-bastard". I mean really... which is harder, having to live a life of work till you drop, or having to endure the endless martini's and soft sand beaches of a holiday resort while every one else is working? Have pity on the poor fucking bastards..... who have to relax while every one else is slaving away. Relaxing is hard work! /s
Well, fuck me, but I'll take the "fucking-fat-rich-bastard" job.... y'all can be the "baggers."
We push cattle that can't walk with a bulldozer into the meat grinder, can't we do the same with the Goyim?
INB4 Las Vegas Dave's Hasbara Troll Alert goes off.
Edit: I was 15 minutes too late. Figures.
Benmosche needs to be force fed his last bonus in single USD bills until he bursts.
Another wafer thin dollar, sir?
BOOM!
Croatian villa, huh?
Not all that far from a nice little eastern European town where they have a tradition for
taking care of his kind
scummy fuck
Blow him and his bankster brothers to living hell: Make the 800+ Trillion in derivatives retroactively illegal. He will die a lonely bankrupt death. Everyone else will be off the hook for the payments and after some chaos and virtuous creative destruction...
Remake health care affordably without the gaming, payoffs and skimming.
I can barely lift my dick now and they expect me to flip 1/2 pound burgers when I'm 80?
just ask Rachel Corrie about zionist bulldozers....
Yes, flacon, it's quite shameful how the Hoi Poloi belittle the hard work and achievements of Wall Street CEOs...the Upper Classes deserve better then being bashed like common folk...shameful I tell you.....
Well, here's to him croakin' in Croatia from rectal obstruction caused by a rabid gerbil.
Corporate America is just trying to suck every last dollar out of every citizen in this great country
Corporate America is just trying to suck every last dollar out of every citizen in this great country.
Does anyone wonder why he's in a seaside villa in Croatia? Maybe it's because Croatia is called "Croatia - The Yachtsman’s Haven" This fucker is wagging his finger at the masses while on the payroll of a company that would not be in existence without taxpayer bailout and at the same clearly looking toward a future of tax evasion in order to not pay back into the system that is supposed to be a safety net that prevents people from having to work until they are 80. Will somebody in the SEC or Congress grow some fucking balls and imprison plus publicly humiliate this walking pieces of shit?
For more details on Croatio - The Yachtsman's Haven...here's an article for you...some highlights:
In conclusion, if you do not receive a salary, consultancy fees or similar income in Croatia, the tax situation is very favorable. The following income is tax-free:
- Interest payments - on loans, investments, deposits with financial institutions, public loans and securities and similar income.
- Pensions received from abroad.
- Capital gains - from trading securities and other financial assets, and capital gains from real estate if you occupied the real estate, held the property more than three years or sold it to your spouse or members of your immediate family.

Croatia is probably a really easy place to get someone whacked on a contract. What you think ... $500US might get it done?
Of course I'd never advocate anything like that. Was just wondering out loud. We're here talking about the global economy and all.
People with that kind of money aren't in the range of $500 hit men. The dudes who contract for that are in the least someone who can do it from 750+m.
The amount of money you have to drop to the politicians in Croatia outweights any benefits you get from taxation. On top of that value added tax (pdv) you pay on anything you buy is 25% (and keeps raising every year) making things more expensive than even in the other euro countries (can't even compare the markup against US). And the icying is that everything down on the coast is twice the amount further north just because idiots like this guy and Bill Gates vacation there.
Nice place to go to for a short vacation but a shithole if you live there. I'd take Thailand or Malaysia over Croatia any day. Better weather, friendlier people and prettier beaches (planned contsruction and non-destruction of natural beauty in an unknown subject to croatian people).
He owns wineries there and uses his position to plug Croatian wines.

If all who have access to the media claim that exiting the euro will be disasterous, it can easily be concluded that the opposite is true.
Live version example: Iceland.
TO SYRIZA LEADERS: If you want to save your country, get out of the euro ASAP. The country is ready to pick up the pieces and prove everyone wrong. Nothing is more important right now than becoming the saviour and a hero in the post euro Greek era. You wil be writing history of bravery.
Unite your people and get started immediately.
It can not get worse than it is now. Control your own fate.
Vamonos
Iceland did not "exit the Euro".
Iceland's banksters stiffed investors from the UK and Holland.
Not quite the same thing I don't think, bad example.
Why the red arrows, am I not correct? Please correct me if I am wrong.
You're right. But default is the common thread here and Iceland giving the Euro-bankers the finger is just as good comparison as any. All banks defrauded other banks and all people of all colors and gepgraphical locations.
Right on Dona K. We are all Icelanders now.
Screw the banksters and their politician serfs!
Iceland banks were taken over by people outside of Iceland. When Icland said they wanted to join the EU they had to let outsiders invest/buy Iceland businesses. It didn't work out to well but the Niceland people are the only ones to put bankster in jail and file charges against those outside the nation.
over the next 50 years they will - murder by neglect - 160 million people in this country - game is in motion not just with limitation of medical services but by creating more extraction in the form of rents of various kind - discretionary income - will be eliminated for a huge portion of the population which will not be able to keep up with the basics
I hope his cancer comes back with a vengeance and he's in hospice for 10 years. I also hope his caretakers punch him in the nuts every hour.
Why do you think HEALTHCARE RATIONING is at the very heart of Obamacare?
Did you think the Socialist Morons around him wrote about Radical Population Controls for nothing?
You have no idea what is going on with Boomers. Their nesteggs have been destroyed by ZIRP and repeated crashes, and they ARE getting jobs and keeping them out of necessity. Another chart.

YOU CAN'T WORK UNTIL 80 IF THERE AREN'T ANY JOBS FOR YOU
Guys like Bob have been FIRING people like mad in the name of 'productivity' - code for loading up more work on cheaper workers.
Ask all the people Bop dumped whlle at Paine Webber and Met LIfe.
Well, yeah. There's that. Then there's the fact that 35-45% of Boomers are the primary caregivers for their elderly parents/relatives. Not for the money, but because so many of the previous generation have too much income to quality for medicaid, but not enough to pay for private care. This is just getting worse.
No one gets to retire.
Get used to it.
S S I - Social Security Insurance. It was always meant to be Insurance not retirement income. The actuarial numbers worked when you started receiving it at age 62 and the life expectancy was 59, nuff said.
that was a fairly ignorant generalization. There are plenty of boomers who aren't benefiting from the New Deal or the Great Society. There are many that will work till they drop either because of need or the work ethic instilled in them by the greatest generation.
This shit has got to end...
Heads will be rolling very soon...
How long do you think we have?
Most say within 5 years.
First it was Greenspan, than Bernanke, than Summers, and now Benmosche.
I dont want to beat on a dead horse but from the garbage that spews out of his mouth, I can tell he is definitely Jewish.
MDB would point out that the life expectancy of the average Greek is only an average. You have at least a 50% chance that you would be able to enjoy that pension for longer than 16 months.
He would point out that if you are, say 45 years-old, you are already part of a smaller, "healthier" pool of walking dead, so if you take out the factor of the quitters your age that have croaked in their youth (grossly skewing the average), your chances are probably around 80% that you would ever get to retire. See, not as dire as it looks, really.
Thank you for seeing the connection as well...
Remember the words of Voltaire...
>>
"I know that there are some Jews in the English colonies. These marranos go wherever there is money to be made... But whether these circumcised who sell old clothes claim that they are of the tribe of Naphtali or Issachar is not of the slightest importance. They are, simply, the biggest scoundrels who have ever dirtied the face of the earth." —Voltaire, Letter to Jean-Baptiste Nicolas de Lisle de Sales, December 15, 1773. Correspondance. 86:166

Why is Corzine above reproach? Is he Jewish or is he Mafia?
A Jew in the Mafia....
straw meet camel's back
Both, like the other person said.
Kosher Nostra.
People looking for the Jew in all their financial criminals might have difficulty fitting the Corzines and Paulsons of the planet into their worldview.
The international Jew banksters have goy stooges and front men on their payroll.
his real name is Corzinski. polish ashkenazi jew scum psychopath! they are always trying to hide their real identity.it is not to escape persecution, it is to assimilate
Silvertree... nobody can know for sure but math says the pressures are mounting towards this summer, as being the start everyone has been waiting for... If I had to throw a dart on the board, I think it would land near Aug/Sept and it can last for 6 months...
Even the roundtable is guessing this is the year things start to really get ugly globally...
But what do I know? Nothing at all... exept that its better to be ready for anything than late for something...
Thanks lite!
Off topic but, anyone needing a side arm or small caliber carbine , check out HI_POINT firearms. bought a .40 cal S&W for $175 . I haxe shot 700+ rounds not 1 jam and they were reloads. very affordable made in Ohio USA lifetime warrenty. arm yourselves.
Neat; thanks.
And one more thing silvertree.... don't be shocked if the ponzi markets rally one more time very soon in a very big way due to the inevitable QE4-QEinfinity that is on the way. It might make some sheeple believe that all is well again because the "DOW JONES MOM AND POP INDEX" is up again.
It's beyond absurd to see the average Joe Sixpack talk about the "markets" like they know what it means. One day the markets are GREEN a few points and the end of the world has been called off. The next day, the markets plunge 200 points and the grim reaper is coming!! Its absurd!! The markets mean very little except how much YOU will be paying at the pump and at the grocer...
Trickle down economics my ass. The only thing trickling down is the inflation to the "little people" and the few crumbs of fat from the fat bankster's mansions being built all over Alpine and Summit NJ...
Yes, I can easily envision long lines queing up at the guillotine.
thats a good thing not a bad thing - we need circus
Try not to jump to conclusions here, as I'm sure he has included himself in this.
I doubt that....how else could he be lounging in his seaside villa unless we, the taxpayers, work till 80s or to our death, to fund this motherfucka's lifestyle.
Where are the Serbs when you need them?
Croatia and Germany go way back ... Any Ben or Mosche is considered an illegal alien there.
The Serbs made an unforgivable mistake, they sided with US in WW2, so naturally we paid them back in our coin- treachery. a blade in the back, through the heart. The Croats were smarter, they went with Germany, they had to wait but go their reward in the end. (Croatia)
So where are the Serbs? The same place Rachel Corrie is.
Let me be clear here.
In Croatia, in power are descendants of prominent secret service families which keep society in check by stirring up nationalist (genocidal Ustasha regime) and socialist (communist) feelings.
Those families have to create this quasi-division in Croatian society, or they would be called up for all the crimes they have done in the past 70 years.
The majority in Croatia enjoyed easy life in the last 20 years due to the cheap Western credit. Consequential Idleness of mind is responsible for the stupid, horrible and irresponsible comment above.
England prevails.
Come on Benmosche, stick your head out that window just once more. That's all I need.
Don't let the door whack you on the bail out.
What he would really like to say to us is that we should be dying at 65 unless we can afford our own retirement and our own medical care, because governments have pissed it all up against a wall. That will get rid of all unfunded liabilities and provide for a debt jubilee as well. The only real downside will be increased housing stock and some downside for pharmaceuticals and retirement homes.
Big pharma saw it coming.
Now they got the Docs pushing chronic drug routines at grade schoolers. Parents nodding all the way. I'm grow tired of trying to wake'em up.
Easy for the motherfucker to saythat . If I get paid Millions for what he does, I'll retire 'til I die...... the fuckers live their retirement whhile at work at the expense of their companies and everybody else , 5 star hotels, meals, trips, etc........ I'll work like him ...
these guys have no morals to speak like they do, and that will kill their golden goose in time!!!
He sure is scum, talking how people will have to work until 80 in order to be fair to everyone please. This is coming from a guy who's company had to be backstopped by the US govt. because they didn't have the money for the CDS contracts that went bad. And here we have him talking from his Croatian villa by the water. I wish I had a villa anywhere on the planet.
another filthy psychopath ashkenazi jew scum! they know no shame. we bail them out and they repay us with a slap in the face. will we never learn. these people have been kicked out of every european nation, sometimes multiple times, for these very same criminal actions. it will be no different here, once everything blows up sky high there will be no one else to blame. fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. americans should be ashamed of themselves for allowing these criminal, miscreant, abherrant, and abhorrant human beings to run rough shod over them time and again.

When i have to retire at 80, i will make you work for me bitch Benmosche.
I always thought Animal Farm was a parody about the USSR. Little did I realize it was actually the template for all of The West.
He has to be my piggy. I just want him to be my piggy, after this article. I always have a problem with choosing piggys. Thanks to zh, i don't have a problem next thursday.
Same Difference, as it turns out.
It's rather telling that George Orwell was a member of the vile Fabian society.
http://conspiracytruths.co.uk/georgeorwell1984.html
=> Ever wonder why our Rockefeller-guided schools made us study 1984? IMO, it was to teach us that revolt is hopeless and to teach us subconsciously about how the system truly works. In addition, it was likely thought to be a worthwhile teaching aid for young sociopaths who are to be trained to ultimately help in their satanic endeavor.
If somebody says I have to work at 80, at age 60 or so I am taking gun and going for robberies. If world has not collapsed by then, which is more probable scenario.
By age of 80 most people are wrecks, with rare exceptions. Besides my granddad is having alzheimer at age of 80 right now, I'd expect similar genes in me.
So 60 sounds good for going wild wild west.
What?
No. Have 15 years to unwind a bunch of old bankers.
I don't see how most of these people are going to survive. Honestly. The world is not large enough to hide them all.
i think as the old folks grow older, they start clinging to life and money much more.
they should retire by 50 or 55 - and start teaching, writing books, and pass the experience onto others. of just flex a nut and enjoy life with their grandkids
Easy to find them. Large country estates, seaside villas, penthouses in large highrises. Come the MadMax, I think I might look in those places first.
Damn straight. And if the feckers have taken to the hills already ... move in with all your buddies and post a sign on the door sayng "kill all bankers"

Eduard Khil passed today. RIP old friend.
And to Benmosche: DIE
:D
If you guys give me the go ahead, I will change my name to 'Ghost of Khil' to honor the legend.
Resurrection this Sunday.
Khil was best known in America for becoming an unexpected viral video sensation just a few years ago, after the discovery of a decades-old television performance. In 1976, he performed a song that was once a hit in Russia, entitled "I Am So Happy to Finally Be Back Home," written by Arkady Ostrovsky.
But when performing the song on Russian television, it was determined that the America-romanticizing lyrics to the song should be replaced with nonsensical vocalizations, including "tro-lo-lo."
Or maybe he just snagged it from this 1960's version of the song? Who knows. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5n041M5FnqA&list=LLK7Q9Kl6xWpDtLIineKSgnw&feature=mh_lolz
Nice find, Doctor. I stand corrected or updated.
Did Khil sing until he was 80? Benmosche be proud.
And this is the asswipe that "B-52" Ben and "Turbo Tax" Timmeh hired to run AIG? Sounds like he would have been right at home at AIG before it imploded.
I'll never forget a ZH comment back in 2009 when TPTB put this wingnut in charge.
HEHEHE commented: Seriously who is that (Benmosche) guy? It's like they walked up to the most sh*tfaced loudmouth in some bar and said congratulations you are now CEO of AIG!
and someone had a great reply
Anonymous: Isn't that how it works?
And I remember those good old days....
Right. Old people keeping their jobs till they drop will do wonders for the unemployment problem. Just the opposite since the job turnover that needs to occur for the next generation to get employment won't happen. Invictus wrote about this yesterday on The Big Picture:
http://www.ritholtz.com/blog/2012/06/the-not-so-golden-years-revisited/
Fuck Invictus & Ritholtz... Ritholtz is just a money changer for garbage collecting union workers still viable because of the largesse only because of Obummer & Co. (which means that the Invictus claim to fame is that he licks the boots of the aforementioned DO NOTHING)...
Upvoted just for slamming the dyke otherwise known as Ritholtz.
So you disagree with his charts? They back up his opinion, as usual. What do you have to back up your ad hom attack?
Backup?
I have enough personal hours wasted at that FOS blog to know that I'm not interested in anything either of them say... Moreover ~ I'm happy at any minute of any given day to use fight club tactics on any troll who happens to show up at a blog like ZH trying to link back to TBP in the hopes that it might get a half dozen page hits by people other than university professors & academics who think that Paul Krugman & Ben Bernanke are God's gifts to economics...
Have a good day...
You are a perfect example of the lack of critical thinking skills of the average "fight club" commenter. A lotta trash talk and nothing to back it up.
Child please... WTF do I have to back up?
Everybody gets their chance to impress...
- Bernanke had his chance... FAIL
- Krugman had his chance... FAIL
- Larry Summers had his chance... FAIL
- Geithner has his chance... FAIL
- Obama had his chance... FAIL
~~~
Not that your two aforementioned heroes are even close to being in the FAME pantheon, but same result... FAIL... In fact, DOUBLE FAIL because they're nothing more than wannabees...
Jesus Tapdancing Christ... Is your personal claim to fame in trying to be a sychophant to a pair of wannabee/neverwas'ers?... Please tell me you have something better to do with your life...
And your list of fails does what to support your indictment of Ritholtz? Sycophant? Not from what I've read.
You are a joke.
From Ritholtz: "There appears to be some tin foil hat commentary, to which I won’t link, to the effect that DOL is cooking the books because the weekly Unemployment Insurance Claims revisions are almost always higher in the hope of making the Obama economy look better than it is."
Zero Hedge has documented the cooking of these books for years now, with TONS of facts, your chosen one says that is a lie. Chosen Ones: 0, ZH: 1.
Yup, I busted Ritholtz for not questioning the BLS numbers before. Nevertheless, his commentary on BLS data is just as relavent as Tyler's or anybody else's. Tyler still uses the data for charts to base analysis on, same as Ritholtz.
Here is what Ritholtz said in his defense to those who question the stats:
http://www.ritholtz.com/blog/2012/02/a-few-thoughts-on-the-employment-situation/
Do you get paid per link? I count over 10 in this thread. I think as another poster said, you would be read more thoroughly without all the links. Please.
Ten? I think I linked to two different analysis, one to defend your ad hom attack on the first link's analysis, and the other two links were to charts that supported my comment. Did I forget something? Oh, then I linked to a ZH BLS analysis. Does that count?
My twitter account got blocked from Ritholtz after I raised questions, politely, about the validity of the BLS numbers. I respect the guy's opinion on the Real Estate asset bubble, but it seems the guy just doesn't want to give into the fact that the system isn't working in terms of job creation. No matter if his guy is in the Office or not.
Whatever. The way things are going for working folk, we'll soon all be thrown under the bridge soon working for peanutsi nthe driving rain for our baking masters liek the folks below in the UK:
http://m.guardian.co.uk/uk/2012/jun/04/jubilee-pageant-unemployed?cat=uk...
In terms of this AIG guy, there's a special place in hell for this motherfucker, I'm covinced. I don't know if there is a heaven, but there is a Hell, and this guy methinks has a reservation in the penthouse suite sucking dicks once the Grim Reaper calls.

Wow, maybe I'll bring that up over at BP. I don't like censorship. I was censored by Denninger for calling Trump a teabagger back when that guy was running his clown show. Haven't read Market Ticker since. Censorship sucks.
There are only a set number of jobs in a top down managed socialized economy, like the old USSR. In a free business climate, the economy expands and people find new use for labor. You will note that the more our government expands and manages more and more of our economy, jobs are contracting, not expanding. The result of more regulation is less business and less competition. Mom and pop cannot compete against walmart and target because they cannot even begin to comply with the thousands of regulations and laws. Government regulations are not to help you, but hinder competition for the big boys.
Based on your presumption that someone must leave the labor force for a new worker to get a job, we would never have been able to get jobs in the first place.
The problem is the government. Put it back in its' cage and the economy can heal.
If I go outside, dig up some clay, make a pot, glaze and fire it, and then sell it, I added value to something and created wealth. I didn't have to wait for someone to quit a union job or a government job or both.
Unfortunately Moe, you're talking to a wall when talking to idiots from Ritholtz-land...
They think that economics is based on 'charts' which are produced from a centrally & socially managed politburo... (but they're more than eager to bust down your doors & share their research with you)...
Oh, so Tyler's charts based on Bureau of Labor Statistics are crap too? Any commentary based on BLS is meaningless to you?
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/americas-transition-part-time-worker-society-accelerates-part-time-jobs-hit-record
Thanks for the tip. I tend to go off trying to explain something nobody wants to know about.
In a negative growth deleveraging economy such as the current one, some will hold on to jobs and the few openings will be for experienced labor. The boomers will hold on to their jobs past their planned retirement age and have the experience to fill the new jobs. This will have a negative effect on the employment of younger workers entering the workforce without experience. Cuts in or raising age limits of social security and medicare will just exasperate things by forcing boomers to work longer.
As far as regulation goes, my solution is to deregulate small business, heavily regulate and tax multinationals. Every law and regulation should be put in place with the idea that small is the right model.
I think you are leaving an awful lot of factors out of your assumptions in the first part.
You are right on target in the second part.
I think part of our problem with this situation is that what was the norm for a very short period of time in history, people were able to retire and have 10 to 15 years of healthy, active time from their early 60's until death. My grandfather's generation did not have that, my father's generation did, and I won't. So really one extended generation had a retirement as we think of it.
In case you don't understand it, a Ponzi scheme pays off those who get in early. The base of the pyramid always gets fucked.
Social Security is a Ponzi scheme. I am near the base. Anyone younger than 50 is not even part of the pyramid, they are just the bedrock that will never get anything back really. That "greatest generation" sure cleaned up, though. Lived during the Depression when young, like kings when they got old. Now they are gone and left us the bill.
So what factors am I leaving out of the first part? We are deleveraging from a bubble and will experience negative growth. As far as Social Security goes, as it gets threatened, the boomers will be holding on to their jobs, leaving less openings for the next generation. If the choice is working until they drop or eating catfood, they will work.
Amen Brother Moe!
but keeping their jobs till they drop will mean they will get a free lunch or dinner at their burger shop where they work and they won't die alone...../sarc
Smug bastard...
I'm fortunate that I have the best physicians to take care of my cancer as for the rest of you pleebs.....no soup for you.
Pop quiz: What is the average life expectancy in the US?
Before or after the drones take off?
79!
Say what??
I think the term is called chutzpah, no?
Indeed ... it's a form of sociopathy that evolves through believing you are a member of a chosen tribe.
Yeah, they're 'God's chosen people' because it says so in a book that they themselves wrote. I always get a kick out of that one...
They got probably several millions of modern day Christians convinced that that's true and those same Christians would sacrifice themselves and all their money to make sure the chosen are protected.
I think it's about time we wrote our own fucking book...
We're going to need to build a lot more Wal-Marts to employ all those greeters.
Nope - http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&frm=1&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CFIQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fjobs.aol.com%2Farticles%2F2012%2F01%2F27%2Fwalmart-greeters-will-no-longer-greet-at-the-door%2F&ei=vBTNT_PSCoT69QT-_vRz&usg=AFQjCNGSlA2n-7rmpsrZ3GduP-bxl6BsMg&sig2=2bd5Zco7Fhj8I_XZbzLJnw
Wal Mart ended its Greeter program. Good luck finding a job boomers.
I think they ended the greeter program because Greeters would actually deter business. Looking through their sad eyes as they tried to figure out why Social Security and Medicare didn't fill all of the gaps that the Federal Reserve created for them. Those greeters provided me a great living, albeit zombie, example not to trust the government - similiar to my Zimbabwe note I keep tucked in my wallet.
Boomers are not the ones having problems finding jobs. The problem is that when they never leave, so there are less jobs available for the next generation. A chart fron the Big Picture link I posted below
