increasing the retirement age is false savings because increasing retirement ages increases disability rates…
think about it, it simply makes sense.. if you push a body physically past retirement years the chances of a disabling injury increase…
but what you most of you don’t know is just how likely you are to become disabled for a significant amount of time before you retire…

there is a wealth of information in here.
i know hoop and skeeter will focus on the line that states smokers are more likely to become disabled…
but that isn’t the only thing in the report worth noting.
the odds of disability happening to you are far higher than you think
