Age 65 causing the employment problems? Give me a break. For a YEAR after Age 65 was enacted, the Regionals were hiring guys with 500/100, some as low as 500/50.

What changed? As the Clinton campaign team used to say:

"Its the economy, Stupid." That, and the oil speculation price spike last summer. Period. Age 65 is a pimple on the butt of the airline tailspin.
