Since life expectancy is becoming longer and longer, retiring age will be higher and higher.
But, we have to pay attention to opinions like "Abolish minimum wage to hire elderly people more easily" or "Shall we hire retired people as volunteering staffs".
As is often the case with Japan's main politicians or presidents of big corporations, they would like to lower average wage of Japanese workers to avoid inflation to make their savings relatively higher value.
So, they are unwilling to raise salary.
We mustn't be deceived by those people.
