In Saudi Arabia, it is illegal to drink alcohol, and is punishable by public lashing. Does that make it acceptable to have this law in a US state?
Should a law be acceptable because there are other places where that law exists, OR should we do what's right? Seems simple to me.
If you have a problem with older people continuing to work and "taking your jobs," then maybe you should move to a Communist country where they share the wealth.
This is how I feel when I hear people talking about this subject:
