ANN ARBOR — America’s aging population will present many different challenges for our country’s healthcare infrastructure. But what about its retirement system?
It could be more complicated than you’d expect.
Changes to the criminal justice system about 50 years ago are coming into play in an unexpected way today, affecting who may be able to take advantage of various options available to Americans in retirement.
In a presentation as a part of the Insights Speaker Series in October 2023, Dr. Mike Mueller-Smith explored these challenges, arguing that how the country accounts for those changes could have a big impact on the quality of life for many Americans. We’ll review that presentation on this week’s episode of The Abstract.
