Abstract
State pensions are in a terrible way. What should be done? In exchange for closing defined-benefit plans to new workers and enrolling all new workers in Social Security, a state should be allowed to issue tax-subsidized bonds for pension funding, according to Joshua Rauh of Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern and Robert Novy-Marx at University of Chicago Booth School of Business.
