May 18 - 22, 2005 |
A proposal has been made that would let people select their own
retirement age. People could pay more in Social Security taxes and
start collecting benefits before turning 65 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
or they could pay less in taxes and start collecting benefits later.
Do you favor or oppose the proposal to let people select their own
retirement age? |
