Today, nobody sees, or wishes to see, that in our time the enslavement of the majority of men is based on money taxes, levied on land and otherwise, which are collected by government from the subjects. »» Leo Tolstoy

As our population ages American businesses are losing one of their most important assets. According to an AARP survey of more than 1,000 business executives-

79 percent agree that the knowledge and experience that older employees take with them when they retire or leave can hurt a business financially

74 percent similarly agree that it has become more difficult to find and retain talented and qualified employees over the last five years

At the same time, with Social Security and Medicare coming up short year after year, more seniors are struggling to maintain their standard of living in their golden years. Additionally, in recent years there have been indications that employer-sponsored retiree health benefits are eroding.

The solution to both problems is the same - retirees need to get back into the workforce. As usual, the market is already prepared to help with this situation. This time it’s in the form of sites like Retireeworkforce.com.

They’re essentially the monster.com for seniors. Everything on the site, from the smooth layout to the buttons to change the font size, is designed with seniors in mind.
