I think they have a point. After grafting till the retirement age of 85, basic citizens should spend their twilight years sitting in lean-to's, knees covered in tartan blankets, staring aimlessly into the outdoors. Men who, after 50 years of manually cracking coal off the face for 12 hours a day, choosing to spend the 3 days before they wheeze a little and die, drinking more than a half of bitter through a day? No wonder they never make it to 100.
