At 54, China’s average retirement age is too low

The government’s efforts to raise it face stiff opposition

This is why US establishment has so much fear and loathing towards China.

Imagine if Americans say, “Whoa, whoa! Wait a minute! The Chinese retire at 54?”

“What’s going on here in the capitalist paradise where 70-year-olds are forced to work at Walmart?”

    But Biden was so gleeful about raising the retirement age back when he was a senator. Surely that was because it was good for the average American.

    I mean, they might get bored! Surely you don’t want people enjoying their retirement while they still have energy.

      What are you gonna do with that anyway? Spend it with the family? Help raise the newer generations. No man! That’ll effect the childcare industry!
