PENSIONS ARE THE FORGOTTEN CRISES.

Baby Boomers will make a huge entry into the pension world when government workers go to the well for both their social security and government pensions. Government pensions could be half that of social security. The only way to fix this pending double crises is to grow our way out of it. To accomplish this, spending on all levels of government must be reduced and the private sector must become competitive in the world market. As government expenditures are cut, surplus money can be used to fund Social Security, while the lessened burden on businesses will enhance their prospects for growth. Unless this is done, millions of citizens may never see their pensions. - Ed Dedelow
