I've never understood why the type of job you have dictates how much you get to save in a tax deferred account. If my employer doesn't have a 401k, why should I be prevented from having the same benefits of someone whose employer does? It makes no sense. Going to a Canadian-style plan would be much fairer than the current system. Excellent post.

I definitely agree! There are more Section 529 plans than there are states!

Great idea, but they definitely make it more complex than it needs to be.

I wonder why our congress hasn't implemented the same thing. Probably because it is too simple and they don't like things being simple. Canada’s plans sounds great.
