Give Us a Plan for a Financially-Secure America!
Target: 2008 Presidential Candidates
Sponsored by: Divided We Fail
Sponsored by: Divided We Fail
It used to be that if you worked hard, raised your family and played by the rules, you'd be OK. But that's no longer true. Today, the burden of saving for retirement, paying for health care and supporting aging parents falls much more heavily on individuals.
For many people, the American dream is eroding. The presidential candidates have said too little about the long-term financial security crisis Americans face every day. Over the next couple weeks, the presidential candidates will do their best to reach voters in the final key primaries. Now, during this critical period for both sides, it is time to demand that leaders develop a real plan of action.

Groceries, gas, utilities... everything is going up except for wages. All in a matter of a year I went from ok to on the verge of filing bankruptcy. My situation has NEVER been this bad. Something has got to give.

At the rate we are going Social Security will not survive. We need to save it. A plan needs to be developed to do this. This is a priority for the American people. It should be your priority as well.
