    Note that you’re using the term “retiree” in this example, but were talking about pensioners previously.

    You are right, I’ve been sloppy.

    A lot of pensioners do keep working

    Do you have any data on what percentage of them do, particularly full time? Based on the people I know, they spend most of their time with hobbies, chores and socializing. Not that there is anything wong with that, but as a larger percentage of our population becomes unproductive it will become harder to fund social services such as healthcare or the UBI.
