Enterprising thoughts by Earl Dunckel on Social Security crisis
Earl Dunckel argues the U S social security system is fiscally unsustainable with welfare and transfer schemes dominating benefits. He highlights high welfare payouts, a shrinking worker-to-beneficiary ratio, projected deficits into 1982 and beyond, and suggests drastic reforms including trimming Medicare and student aid. He urges Congress to act before the system collapses.
