Why do seniors get passes and discounts everywhere?

They should be paying more because they all have the money and massive 401k portfolios and real estate. I can agree with military discounts because these guys were willing to serve the country.

because many times the elderly don't eat much, don't use the "rides" or whatever the fuck the business is selling.

the boomers would normally stay home, as they can't eat an entire _____ but senior discounts help bring in customers who normally may not even be patrons.


I mean, and the boomers are slow and have already contributed to society for their entire lives, aren't exactly making the big bucks like current workforce is, etc.

Many reasons.

Some places start at 50 or 55. I got a discount at Michaels a couple years ago doing an online order.

In theory they should have money saved, yes, but in reality they don't. Most of you will work paycheck to paycheck then get old and be unable to work so you will need this discounts.

It makes sense when you really think about it. You're cherry picking based on the belief everyone should have plenty of money by retirement age but the data says most of you will be working as a door greeter at Walmart or bagging groceries because that's all your old age will enable you to do generating nothing more than a peasants income.
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

Virtue signaling is blatant marketing/propaganda.
