Professor feedback:

I think that you will need to move sections around to add value to the study components. I outlined the necessary steps. Please, follow my prompts.

Since your study is very technical, you will need to add as many cites as possible because most of your information came from a lot of research and previous work performed by experts in the field. You put a lot of statistics in the paper; accordingly, they require proper citing

You will also need to decide the problem statement- What is the research question- I added one. And make sure that the aims and research questions are answered in conclusion.

Also, I added content analysis for methodology. Since your work employs literature review and case studies, content analysis is appropriate, qualitative, and quantitative. Please include a proper definition of content analysis.

In the data gathering section, you will need to address what search engines you used to gather all this information. What keywords did you put in the search engines?

The data analysis section must be added. How do you get to the discussion section if you don’t have a data analysis section? That is where the graphs are necessary definitely illustrates the significant problems with social security and defined-benefit systems.
add the Mikesell charts I sent, especially the states performing poorly. You can’t discuss issues unless you illustrate the problems. Consequently, the Mikesell chart may help. While it does not provide the total scope of the problem, but it is something whereby you can adequately discuss the issues you cite.
The Mikesell Charts are attached as an excel document
