This Retirement Security Plan structure that we have suggested I think would go a long way toward dealing with these issues.
I sense there is a feeling here that we have got to get some of these things done that are hanging out there.
It was incredibly important that we not only made Social Security solvent, but we lifted the bottom 20 percent dramatically.
We all know that Social Security is going to have to be dealt with, or we are going to face by 2034 at the latest--many of us believe it will be earlier than that---an across-the-board 23-percent cut.
