But some are not helping the situation. For example, I remember reading (paraphrasing) "I'll think about coming out of retirement for $200 an hour and I'll only work for one year max." When employers hear things like that, no wonder they look for a different category.

Age discrimination  is basically "we want young, inexpensive, workers
regardless of qualifications" (unsaid is because that increases the top

manager we would not be upgrading CICS to the supported level because it
would increase the budget and decrease his bonus. It's all about the money
going to them. Well, I imagine there might be exceptions.

company is willing to pay.
Of course there may be some age discrimination going on as well.
