re: #34 The Ghost of a Flea

I think it’s not so much a conservative/liberal thing on retirement. I think it’s generational. A lot of Boomers have their identity wrapped up in their work, and thus refuse to retire. That mentality seems to have seeped into the conservative Gen X and Millennial world view along with the Boomer view of “if you just work hard enough you’ll be rewarded by the system.”
