The next welfare state
As the senior citizen population EXPLODES in this country, there are less and less "safety nets" for their future. With the elimination of pension plans, and seniors living longer, I can see a government role in supporting these citizens. So IBM is moving offshore, dumping their pension plans and WE end up paying for it all - albeit in 20 years . . .

This country is headed straight to h-e-double toothpicks - and IBM is providing the "hand basket" . . .
