Drivers of Gridlock
ƥ Concern over future funding and benefit levels of Social Security and
Medicare and Medicaid LTC
ƥ Long term fiscal imbalance and its implications for tax levels and for tax
incentives for health care and retirement savings
ƥ Decline of employer provision of retiree life income annuity streams and
retiree health
ƥ Implications for competitiveness of mandates on employers
ƥ Implications for economic growth and consumer spending of mandates on
employees
ƥ Lack of individual understanding of the magnitude of the savings needed
for retirement and the resulting lack of preparation
ƥ Absence of employee/employer/voter support for:
ƛ Mandated savings
ƛ Mandated life income streams
ƛ Increased taxes on Ơme/usơ to pay for programs (existing or new)
ƥ Absence of public trust in Ơgovernmentơ or Ơspecial interestsơ to be honest
