The report includes an increase in median income for those 65-74 (6.9%) and 75+ (2.8%). Perhaps an increase in transfer payments?

Everyday I feel like I read a new article that analyzes the plights of a certain age bracket with regards to employment. New graduates dont have enough expirience, and older people have to much (Logic: older people are usually in the last few years of career when looking to be hired, and college grads are a better “investment” due to potential for longer career at company). I think the economy is just plain bad for everyone.

I found the education/race statistics the most interesting. Apparently if you have too little, or too much education, doing much better than the rest of us. The income changes for race make me wonder though..
