Un-retirements were inevitable with the elimination of the penalizing income limits for those under 70. That was a throw-back to the Great Depression and FDR. Encourage those eligible to retire to step aside, and penalize them if they tried to earn extra income. The idea was to leave more jobs to the younger folks.
Then again, maybe many of the un-retiring folks will opt for self-employment. There is plenty of room for people in that sector in both product and service sectors.
I'll gladly sponsor/mentor a few seniors who are interested in sales. They have a life time of contacts as well as on the job knowledge and experience.
With their Social Security and other retirement in place, the ups and downs of commission only income isn't the same hardship to them. It's like collecting retirement plus.

Self-employment opportunity for the young and young at heart!
