Rules

The article entitled “Rules of Disengagement” is a difficult one to understand. I think the article is saying that money which is currently put away to help in the future as a pension fund may change how this money is invested. Senator Joseph Lieberman of Connecticut plans to introduce legislation to give all Thrift Savings Plan participants more of a say in how their money is invested. Those involved would be able to disinvest in companies that currently do business with terrorists. Countries that are currently labeled as sponsors of terrorism are: Iran, North Korea, Syria and Sudan. All three presidential candidates have endorsed a terror-free concept for pension plans.
