The options are quite limited.The paradox is explained in this video; http://longnow.org/seminars/02019/mar/13/modern-elder-and-in...

The corporate culture, instead of embracing mature workers who have plenty to offer, chooses the 'cancel culture' to eliminate senior citizen hiring.

The latest technique being employed uses large foreign consulting firms to filter out older workers so that the target firm can not be accused of discrimination - in other words, discrimination by proxy [e.g. insurance companies like Cigna].

The best way to 'cope' is to contact your State Human Rights and Opportunities office and report any and all instances of this activity. Its a free way to begin understanding what your rights are and it shines a bright light on offending enterprises.

This is a large subject that not only includes hiring discrimination but job elimination devices such as performance review abuse and other subtle maneuvers.
