Résumé : | The social security system is facing a severe financial crisis. A combination of inflation and falling birth rates have forced steep increases in the payroll tax, and even worse problems face the program early in the next century when the post war baby boom reaches retirement age. The funding crisis has stimulated serious public discussion about social security for the first time in its history. This book makes an important contribution to the debate by assembling leading students of the problem to define the major issues and policy options. |
