Laurence J. Kotlikoff and Scott Burns authored the book entitled The Coming Generational Storm: What You Need to Know about America's Economic Future. The MIT Press published the book in March, 2004. It is in print with ISBN 0262112868 .
In the Prologue on page xii, the authors say the United States was "heading into one God-awful fiscal storm, the full dimensions of which are hard to fathom." Further, they say on page xiii the book offers suggestions for United States public policy and personal finance to help deflect the "storm". Moreover, they state:
- "We feel we have some unique insights into the demographic and economic problems facing our country based on our own research and that of other economists and financial analysts. Our goal is to leave you with a real sense of what's coming, why it's coming, when it's coming, and where national and personal economic salvation does and does not lie."
