sauce? there’s way more retired old people than unemployed young despite how the latter’s rising
the old people don't need money, they need resources. and who produces the resources? companies, with the help of workers. so if there's an unemployment phenomenon, that means that enough resources are already being produced, apparently.
as a capitalist society they still need money to buy the resources. if they don't have money then there's not enough demand from them
