Answering the Myths About Social Security

If you are interested in the Social Security debate, I urge you to visit the website of the National Center for Policy Analysis.

This evening, for example, it has a new two-page paper by Dr. Thomas R. Saving which succinctly demolishes these four myths about Social Security:

Myth 1: The Trust Funds can help pay benefits.
Myth 2: The financial problems of Social Security and Medicare are in the distant future.
Myth 3: The funding problem is minor.
Myth 4: Personal Retirement Accounts won’t help.

Download the entire paper, “Answering the Myths About Social Security,” here.
