Exactly. This guy working to 65 because he’s been tricked, not because he needs to.
Dude, most of us would stop working if we could, and those that would keep working would only be doing it because they enjoy it. Nobody’s getting tricked into working longer.
“Coerced” would be a better term, but I think the idea behind “tricked” is that there’s a wealth of propaganda that normalizes dedicating your life to your career and defining yourself by your vocation. We’re being decieved by people who profit by maintaining the status quo, even when the status quo is harmful.
