Notes

1 This of course makes it easier for people to support themselves in retirement but at the expense of the younger generations who pay high prices for housing.

2 One might wish to make the distinction between policies designed to promote early retirement from policies which add to the cost of labour and therefore discourage employment. It is hard to see the latter as a consequence of social workleisure preferences except indirectly as arising from the need to support people who do not work.
