We are living in an age of unprecedented wealth, with millions entering the middle class every year. Homo sapiens live longer lifespans than ever before, with better nutrition, and better medicine than ever in our history. This is also the most peaceful time in our history, with record lows in crime and wars. The developing world is surging in wealth and in the west we have more opportunity and access to information than ever.

I mean the graph we're talking about, the one with retirement. If the retirement age was higher and you count in the data from the other graph, that makes it even worse. It means that many people worked their asses off right to their death, without being able to retire at all.
What graph? It's a meme with that wrestling guy. I only see one picture.
