AARP Members support Personal Retirement Accounts by More than a 2-1 Margin
August 15, 2005

A poll that the media failed to report on found that:

"Voters age 55 and older think offering personal retirement accounts to young workers is a good idea by almost a two-to-one margin... with AARP members slightly more likely to say personal accounts are a good idea than non-AARP."

Among the other findings:
By 3-to-1 senior voters think that Social Security is not sound

Among the other findings:
By 3-to-1 senior voters think that Social Security is not sound

Also by a 3-to-1 margin seniors think it would be irresponsible if Congress does not reform Social Security

The majority of seniors think it would costs more to reform Social Security later than it would today

Sixty percent favor reforming Social Security so long as nothing changes for them.

Sixty percent also think young voters should be offered personal retirement accounts

Half of all seniors wish they had had the opportunity to own a PRA
