From the Paper:

"They say that money can't buy happiness, but it is clear from the research that income levels certainly affect the quality of life for older people in America. Despite the enormous strides made over the last 100 years in developing an unprecedented social security framework, significant disparities remain in the quality of healthcare and living conditions for the vast majority of elderly Americans."
