Very interesting. Never knew that.

What I don't understand is why they have gradually increased the age for full benefits but they've left the minimum age the same at 62. I'm sure it would help the solvency of the system if they started creeping up the minimum age also. I bet they could save millions if they made it 62 and 2 months or 4 months. Minor changes could save a bundle.
