The hell they didn't! If anyone over 60 is still on property they definitely helped "implement" the new law. The new law was a mandatory retirement law, not a mandatory work to age 65 law. I can tell it to whomever I feel like. This is why I will have a mid-career 4 + year furlough. Oh, and by the way, what was lost in furlough is a cold hard number. 4 years off on low end is $250,000 on high end is probably in excess of $500,000.
