Trailer Vagabond Seeks One Pension Plan For All
In a reflective column from Los Angeles the author argues for a single workable national pension plan funded by a sales tax. He criticizes too many competing plans, calls for modest initial payments, elastic benefits, and work requirements for ages 50 to 61 to align with labor needs. He invites readers to comment and to order a prepublication book offer. The piece also lists travel and landmark images included in the coming edition and notes regional readers’ names and towns.
