MY PENSION! I can actually afford to retire. Shame this is such an issue in the richest country in the world.
Richest for whom? This country is not inclusive and many "poorer" countries actually have a much better safety net for people. It's all based on a tax base and when that base is low so are benefits and infrastructure.
Wow! That is wonderful! I live in the wrong state, Pete Ricketts (TD Ameritrade family) is our governor.
Glad to hear you can afford to retire , but I'm not so sure we are the richest country any more . A lot of huge Metropolitan areas are basically being abandoned , schools aren't being supported , life supporting natural resources are running short due to contamination , government agencies which cleaned the air , are being dismantled so that corporations can continue to contaminate the water and soil .
Congratulations! Enjoy it.
Thank you.
