Most Americans have no retirement strategy. In fact, the new model of retirement appears to be work until you die. It isn’t an uncommon model. In fact, this used to be the status quo for centuries on end. Some tend to believe that having a middle class is the natural order of things.

That is simply not true. The middle class needs to have an economic system that favors those that work hard instead of protecting a modern day corporatocracy where politicians simply protect those that pay them off. This is the new system in place.

So it is no surprise that 100 American CEOs now have as much retirement wealth as 116 million Americans. It is no surprise then that many older Americans are going to rely on Social Security as their primary source of income into retirement. As you would expect in older age medical costs go up so the burden on Medicare will also rise. The retirement divide simply grows larger in this country.
