A Super Future
Author: Else Anne & St John Susan
An interesting book. Every New Zealander who cares about the future should read this book as well as those overseas interested in the pension debate. The book is objective, though one gets the feeling the authors are in the left of centre camp, seeming to prefer controls rather than carrots. Who should get a state funded pension? How much is enough? What will it cost. Can New Zealand afford it?
