Over the next two decades, almost 10,000 Americans will reach retirement age every single day. They deserve to live their older years in dignity. Instead, they will experience a dramatic drop in their standard of living. Our country is on a path that will lead to rates of impoverishment for senior citizens not seen since the Great Depression.
The reality is America s retirement system is broken.
Rescuing Retirement charts a visionary, bipartisan, and surprisingly simple way to solve this problem:
- Every full-time worker can save enough for retirement.
- Retirement savings grow by earning higher rates of return.
- Everyone retires with guaranteed lifelong income for themselves and their spouse.
- The plan doesn t add a dime to the deficit, increase taxes, or create any new government infrastructure.
A better, smarter retirement future is possible. This book shows American workers, employers, and political leaders how to get there.
