If people are contributing to a traditional IRA now, and expect to retire in 20-40 years and be in a lower tax bracket, I think that's unlikely. We are currently have some of the lowest tax rates for for income tax in recent decades. Yet we also have a multi-trillion dollar national debt. Regardless of whether we it's a good idea to raise taxes or not, to address the debt, I think it's going to happen. That's one more reason to go with a Roth now. Unless, future politicians decide to change the rules regarding a Roth. The longer you have to wait until retirement, the less likely a lower tax rate will be.
