Thanks to the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, individuals in the United States over age 40 are legally protected from employment discrimination based on age. But in Europe, most workers are forced to retire in their mid-60s, including professors, who are just getting good at what they do.

Asimov made a note of this in his book "i, robot" europe is far too antiquated.
