    There are some government jobs that have mandatory retirement at a certain age (usually 65)-- is that ageism? I also don’t believe the majority of 80+ people are capable of understanding the modern needs of most of the country.

      the majority of 80+ people

      A case by case judgement should be made.

      Also, some of this may become increasingly moot as breakthroughs come.
