Social Security's Looming Surpluses: Prospects and ImplicationsCarolyn L. Weaver American Enterprise Institute, 1990 - Počet stran: 229 This volume raises questions about the way the social security system in the USA is financed and its assets invested. Do the taxes that are being collected enhance benefit security for baby-boom retirees? Will advance funding increase real incomes to lighten the burden of future benefits? If the answer is no, what policies can be put in place to promote these goals? This collection of pieces by renowned analysts addresses each of these issues. |
