Honestly, I'd be fine with it, if it actually led to the part where the population is healthy enough to work and thrive if they so desired.

But that's not what they're saying. They're saying they want to keep you alive long enough to keep working past your retirement age.

Quality of life never factors into financial projections, so their goal is give the bare minimum to the people who can pay for it. The part where he says "If you so desire" is so incredibly loaded I am surprised it didn't make a loud crashing noise when he said it. Tell us what the alternative is Doc Oz. What's the alternative??

take it from me, the years you are capable of working are more valuable to you than the years you are not, regardless of what you do with them. if you are unable to work, there's a damn good chance you amassed quite the list of things you were unable to do before work got added to the list.
