Roy Ethridge for Congress Proposal to Reform Social Security
The 1937 Social Security Act is outdated and should be revised in 1972. Proposals include eliminating the $1680 earnings limit, allowing full benefits at retirement or continued work without retirement tax, extending Medicare to disability beneficiaries, aiding widows with grown children, and addressing high borrowing costs and hidden lending fees in South Carolina. The critique also urges revision of the Federal Truth in Lending Act to better protect consumers.
