Ben Shapiro Passionately Argues Retirement Age in U.S. Should Be Raised


"Raise The Retirement Age"

The Ben Shapiro Show

Ben Shapiro‘s popping off on retirement in the U.S., saying people who want to hang it up professionally at age 65 are off their rocker … arguing the threshold should be raised.

The conservative talk show host made his case loud and clear on Tuesday’s “The Ben Shapiro Show” … saying the notion that retirement age should remain at 65 is absolutely absurd — especially since President Biden is running for reelection at the ripe age of 81.

Ben says he’s actually shocked the retirement age hasn’t been bumped up already — especially considering folks in the U.S. are living a lot longer nowadays.

The host continues arguing that working well past retirement age is a good thing … ’cause, according to him, everyone he knows who’s retired around 65 has lost their purpose in life. BS adds that it’s ridiculous folks would solely rely on Social Security benefits for the next two decades after retirement rather than work … seemingly suggesting it’s a lazy way to go.

Ben uses his parents as a shining example of people older than 65 who’ve stayed on the grind — although, it’s unclear exactly how old they might be. Point is … he thinks people oughta keep working into old age, and he says there’s many examples of people doing so.

He also makes the point that people retiring at 65 and leaning SS isn’t financially sustainable for the country … a right-wing talking point that’s been brought up by Republicans, etc.

It probably goes without saying … but his hot take here is getting dragged all over X. Of course, some actually seem to agree with Ben’s fundamental point … different strokes. 🤷🏽‍♂️
