Sixty percent of Americans favor personal retirement accounts – And as
Patrick Ruffini details, Americans 30 and younger support them overwhelmingly (almost five-to-one ratio!) George Will is fond of pointing out that this is the only demographic that John Kerry won in the 2004 election. Heh.
The AARP ad is making me nuts. Tear down a house to fix a sink? As if it's just the sink that's broken! I lived in a house in California that was tilting seriously to one side and an old house in North Dakota that had no level surfaces, wiring from 1950, and a cracked fireplace. Surely they could have come up with a more accurate house analogy! To fix the house in North Dakota, besides the wiring and plumbing, would require lifing the house off the foundation, removing the foundation, building a new one, and setting the house down on it again.
ReplyDelete*That's* the advertisement I want to see. In any case, someone should tell the AARP that this isn't about old people, it's about me and then it's about my kids.
A broken sink! As if.
