it will show up in worker's comp statistics, won't it?

By the time an office worker gets to be in their sixties, they've either figured out how to deal with their job stresses, or they haven't, and they figured that out some years ago, and figured out an early escape plan.

Of course, the alternative is keeping the present system, which treats all workers exactly alike, and makes them wait until 67, no matter what. Usually, it's the white-collar types who have managed to take advantage of ways to save for retirement so they can bail out at 62. I still favor keeping that option.
