Overview

This primer on Social Security describes the elements of the program that are most relevant to the current debate about Social Security's future. It examines the demographic patterns that are causing the graying of the U.S. population & looks at several strategies that have been proposed for preparing for that aging population. The primer emphasizes the economic & budgetary aspects of Social Security -- particularly, how changes to the program might affect the nation's ability to deal with its impending demographic shift. Appendices: the economic effects of having the government issue debt to finance investments in the stock market; & proposals for private accounts in the 106th Congress.
