Retirement Underground

The Retirement Underground exposes how the system is rigged against individuals planning for retirement. While a minority enjoys lucrative pensions and investments, the majority of workers face inadequate savings, dwindling social security, and unreliable private pension plans.

In the Retirement Underground, players will:

Investigate the underfunding of public pension systems and the risky nature of 401(k) investments. Explore how corporate policies and government regulations impact retirement security, often benefiting the wealthy. Assess alternatives like universal retirement plans, pension reforms, and social safety nets. The Dream Runs allow players to experiment with different retirement models, helping them create a system where retirement security is equitable and accessible to all.
