While anecdotal evidence suggests that the number of frozen pension plans has increased since 2003, reports of a mass exodus from the defined-benefit pension system appear to be overstated.
Despite a strong economy, pension plans are reporting even larger shortfalls than last year. Clearly we need new rules that will require companies to fund the pension promises they make,
If those contributions are not made, workers and retirees will be placed at greater risk of losing promised benefits,
The problem will become much worse. To call upon taxpayers - most of whom don't have defined-benefit pensions - to pay for the benefits of those who do would be fundamentally unfair.
The combination of rules allows companies to go for years on end without putting any money into their pension plans.
