How the Retirement System Works. The pension system is a creature of the tax code. Congress gives employers and workers tax incentives to save money for retirement.
What's Wrong with the Retirement System. The pension system has 2 primary problems. First, not enough workers get pensions. Second, those that do get plans requiring them to save first to earn an employer contribution but no one knows if these plans can produce enough savings for retirement.
