I think it was this past Tuesday nightly news where Brian Williams stated 36% of retirement age Americans have less than $1,000 dollars saved. Now I know this category of numbers tends to get jumbled but if this is near the truth think of what a burden this could have on the economy. I do not know what this plays out in actual numbers of people but it mist be substantial. We all know by now one cannot survive on social security. This could create a whole new group of welfare needy and where is that money going to come from? Kids without jobs moving back home, so do grandpa and grandma move back in with their children also!?
