Description: |
Securing America's Future counters the attacks on Social Security, making clear that the system is not in crisis. The book calls for several changes, including Social Security's expansion, universal health care, and reforms that would enhance Social Security and make it even more beneficial for Americans. |
Synopsis: |
Since its adoption in 1935, the Social Security Act has been a great success, operating efficiently, never missing a payment, and providing economic security for retired and disabled Americans and their dependents. Nevertheless, the system has been the subject of fierce attack - not least from President George W. Bush. Securing America's Future counters the attacks on Social Security and makes clear that this important program is not in crisis. The book proposes a series of modest changes to improve the program, including reforms to enhance Social Security and increase its value to Americans. Securing America's Future is an important book for students and scholars of public policy and all Americans interested in the reality of our Social Security system. |
