2006 Lewis & Clark Law School Twelfth Annual Business Law Forum:

The Aging of the Baby Boomer and America’s Changing Retirement System

The impending retirements of the baby boomers coincide
with a marked decline of the traditional pension as the prevailing model for retirement income. Traditional pensions are being replaced by the defined contribution
or individual account model. At the same time medical benefits for both retirees and employees are being cut
or restructured to impose more costs on the recipients. These changes in turn generate fiscal pressures on Social Security, Medicare, and other mechanisms for social support. Where is America's retirement policy headed?
