I agree with this letter and after 40 years of work (I am 52 and started when I was 12) I decided to take advantage of all the money I paid into the government, since my position was eliminated by a Mexican company. I am now in school to better myself and get another job.
 
Anyway the Robert Hall is NOT the CSI actor.  Here is an excerpt from a blog in his own words:
 
"Robert A. Hall is a Marine Vietnam veteran who served five terms in the Massachusetts state senate. He blogs at www.tartanmarine.blogspot.com Update: Someone attached a picture of Robert D. Hall, an actor, to some versions and forwarded it on, saying that I was on CSI. We are two different people, and I am not an actor--unless you count running for public office.
And to the folks who said I'm Old and should die and get out of the way, I have IPF, so will comply soon enough. "
