Benefits from benefits...

According to a recent AARP study, Social Security pumps $2 dollars in to the national economy for every dollar a recipient spends.

Cutting Social Security and pensions would harm the economy.

So You Thought This Was About Jogging?

This blog is about economic security; people who feel like they're "running in place." The mainstream media is fairly consistent in covering the struggles of working families, especially children, but even that coverage is mostly anecdotal, and fails to examine the policies and practices which contribute to these conditions.

Pension Security for older workers is woefully underreported. This issue needs more attention. Public Employee Pension Security is currently under attack, and the outcome will affect millions of American households.

We will report on developments affecting American workers and their families, especially Public Pension Security, and encourage discussions that lead to action. We need to be part of the policy discussions that occur at a far remove from our every day lives, and to actively participate in resolving these disparities.
