Dorothy Thompson argues Supreme Court approval of Social Security does not equal a good law. She cites Twentieth Century Fund and Abraham Epstein dissenting, urging reform before more funding. She notes German and British contrasts, actuarial concerns, and warns of burdens on workers and potential misallocation of reserves.
