For my final project, I decided to do an essay on choice number five, “ In the United States we do not need to plan for retirement. Social Security will cover our needs for retirement. I chose this topic for a couple of reasons. The first was because I am getting closer to retirement and I really would like to know as much as possible on this subject.

To make my point more credible, I will refrain from using the phrases “I think”, “I feel”, or “In my opinion.” I will also refrain from using personal experiences or examples. The conclusion of my essay should be as...
