www.DemocracyNow.org – Democracy Now! broadcasts on the road from Kansas City, Missouri, today. Amy Goodman interviews William Black, a white-collar criminologist, former financial regulator, and author of “The Best Way to Rob a Bank is to Own One.” Black teaches economics and law at the University of Missouri-Kansas City and recently took part in Occupy Kansas City. “If you look [at the Occupy protests] not just nationwide, but worldwide, you will see some pretty consistent themes developing,” Black says. “That includes, we have to deal with the systemically dangerous institutions, the 20 biggest banks that the administration says are ticking time bombs. As soon as one of them fails, we go back into a global crisis. We should fix that, there’s no reason have institutions that large. Accountability is also a theme, that we should put these felons in prison … And that we should get jobs now and that we should deal with foreclosure crisis. … Those are four common themes you can see in these protests… I think over time you’ll not necessarily have some grand written agenda, but you will have increasing consensus, a broad consensus.” For the complete transcript, podcast, and for additional Democracy Now! reports on the Occupy Wall Street movement, visit www.democracynow.org FOLLOW DEMOCRACY NOW!

Financial Finesse, the nation’s leading US provider of unbiased workplace financial education, has released its third and final special research report for 2011 on the state of employees’ retirement preparedness. Report shows employees continue to make improvements to finances and increase focus on retirement but are not doing enough to adapt to the “new normal” Download a PDF of the release here. The report found that the overall state of US employees’ retirement preparedness remains low despite a positive trend in employees improving their finances and putting heavier emphasis on retirement planning. According to the report: • Most employees have never run a retirement projection despite their income or age. Fifty-seven percent of employees at pre-retirement age, between 55 and 64, said they had not run a calculation to estimate whether or not they were on track to replace 80% of their annual pre-retirement income (or their goal) in retirement. This number grew with younger generations: 68% of employees age 45-54, 67% of employees age 30-44, and 73% of employees under 30 indicated they had not run a calculation and didn’t know if they were on track to retire.
