Before we age, we lack experience, context, produce less useful work per hour worked, and get paid less. Legality aside, isn't it rational to discriminate against younger people?

[renewiltord]

Yes, dude, that's why it's legal. What you've done is show that despite the symmetry, one is legal and one isn't.

[slibhb]

Yes, there are valid reasons to discriminate against young people. (Being paid less isn't one of them though, that's a point in their favor).

[endisneigh]

I don’t think this is the retort you were intending.
