2040? That's only 30 years away. We better start twinking (sp). And my guess is, those numbers didn't factor in what is happening now to our economy. The numbers are generally overly rosy in these projections. And hey, flush is a GOOD thing. There's still no reason to have people retiring at 65, just because the money is there. That's a ridiculous thing to encourage, imo. Is there a reason you think 65 is a super number when folks are living much longer today? I'd rather have people producing, if they are productive. We've got enough dead wood in this society; we don't need to encourage the people who actually can work to quit. Might be harsh, but I'm not changing my mind on this one.
