If you refuse to hire an old guy, that is a lawsuit, and socially unacceptable to say or do. But this is OK? Even if I said I didn’t want to hire the 65 year old that is changing careers and learning a new field because I don’t want to spend time training them when they are on the cusp of retirement, that’s a lawsuit and socially unacceptable. But this is ok?
Age discrimination against young people is legal. Youths are not a protected class. The only protected class based on age is people 40 and over, not young people, unless your state has different rules or you’re outside of Freedomland where actual worker protections exist.

Exploiting young people is feature of the system.
People just don’t like saying it out loud.
If young folk have a future how will we get them into warzones?
