I don't like this headline because it implies that Joe Biden and Donald Trump are, or ever has been, a worker...

That's the real crime. Leaders can be old. Workers should never be forced to be old.

One still works because they can't let go of power, the other works because they need to survive.

Was reading Wikipedia about a string of serial murders last night. One of the victims was an 81 yo man on the way home from his work. This was in 1973. It's not a new problem, it's just worse than before.

Neither one of them cares anything about workers. Young or old.
