We have too many today. but by the end of this decade. if we get through this year and the difficulties we have. there will be a shortage of workers. We will not be able to grow without more people either working longer or. I suppose somebody could charitably say. without a lot more illegal aliens. which we do not want. The answer. it seems to me. is in the area that the Senator from Florida and I have been working on. We need to make it possible for this country to use the experience and the judgment. the knowhow. the lessons learned over a lifetime in a world where judgment. where understanding. where commonsense. those qualities which you can improve with ageI get a little smarter every day I come out here on the Senate floorthose qualities which you improve with age. that is what. above all. our older workers who conventionally retire have to offer this country.
