People in there 50's may not be physically able to take manual labor jobs, or they may not be able to walk long distances for a job. There is no mass transit outside of cities and there are not a lot of jobs either.
Plus many of the same people who yell "Get a job" will also refuse to hire a homeless person who does not have clean clothes or the ability to bathe every day.
But I guess it is okay to let these people starve so that we don't "weaken" our military. I mean we only spend more than the next 7 largest countries (China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, India, France, United Kingdom, France) COMBINED.
