Obama begins push for new National Retirement "System"

[Cruella]

You are no doubt right. I wonder where the ideas for nationalized health care were first discussed?

Retirement Security for All: A Forum on State Action

On September 14, 2012, the Pension Rights Center, the Schwartz Center for Economic Policy Analysis (SCEPA), and Dēmos hosted a forum at the New School for Social Research in New York City on expanding private-sector retirement plan coverage at the state level. The forum brought together state officials with experts from Capitol Hill and a variety of organizations to discuss proposals for state-administered retirement plans for private-sector workers and to share strategies for moving these proposals forward.

oic, well the way I read it is not so much that he would want to end private accounts as that he would want to nationalize them. Given how other things have been nationalized they never really fully take over, they just gain enough control to get what they want yet never enough to solve the problems that were used as the excuse to intervene in the first place. Is that by design or because there is opposition?

they just want the moneynot the responsibility, kind of like Social Securitywhich is to rely on a moutain of IOUs that can't possibly be paid.
