I do not disagree at all with this. That being said, it is a legitimate stance that it was a bold move to be taken by EO. It may have been legal, may not have been, but for a program like that to have longevity and to be done without as many questions regarding its legality, legislation is needed.
We don't need market based retirement only. This was yet another reason to have a large family children take care of their parents. Each family can do this, we don't need the government to be our caretakers.
