noone will want to hire you because you are too old.

In some regions this is about as legal as "noone will want to hire you because you aren't white enough".

e.g. in the European Union: http://europa.eu/legislation_summaries/employment_and_social...

White people aren't going to become black. Vast majority of men aren't going to become women. However we're all going to get old, so it's in lots of people's interest to campaign for ageism laws like that.
