Presumptuous response.

I responded to someone who literally said older guys ask for too much and that's why they don't hire them

Ugh, cmon. You are really straining to be outraged here.

That is not at all what I said. In my experience, older people almost always ask for above market compensation regardless of experience. We don’t hire people that ask for too much money regardless of age.

Why would I be outraged?

Who you pick is entirely up to your company. If you don't super expensive people, that's fine. Maybe you already have those?
