The authors roll out the same tired arguments about how to fund retirement, offering no new insights, just lambasting the government for not doing what other nations are doing. One would expect more from the Fraser Institute.

It seems logical that to get Canadians to work longer and retire later our government must beat them with a stick, that stick being elligibility for benefits and tax rates. However, a bigger problem pointed out yesterday by a government spokesperson is keeping those over the age of 57 who want to work in the work force. It seems that when seniors lose their jobs they have a real tough time finding viable replacements. One can always get a McJob but such work is usually part time, pays poorly and  not very satisfying.

 Given the poor quality of this article I recommend that the authors go into a line of work that they are more qualified for, like pushing a broom or selling shoes.
