Is this what I would be hearing if I actually watched this loser? 'People live until 83-85 and are retiring at 65 and this is a bad thing'? People should literally just work until they drop dead?

Yeah let's just plug them into the matrix and make them power our cities but without the dream world, cause making that costs money.

You'd rob us of our final twenty years of freedom? What is going on? What is wrong with people like this? At 65 my body would be barely a shadow between life and death; I shouldn't have peace in my final twenty years?

Oh easy enough for him to say, he's a millionaire; he can retire NOW if he wanted to. Can you believe most boomers vote for the same people he votes for?

my parents barely hit their 60s before they shuffled off this mortal coil, i think 75 is maybe a bit generous

I think some of this data is life expectancy at age 40, so the effect from birth is going to be a bit more pronounced. Still, with the poorest 80% being working class, the average is going to be somewhere in the lower 70s.
