John Shoven argues yes, Henry Aaron no. Theoretical issues such as the likely effects on saving behavior and capital formation figure importantly in this discussion. But so do a broad array of practical considerations such as the expense of fund management and accounting, questions about how the public would regard the fairness of any new system, and the impact of recent developments in the federal budget and the U.S. stock market.The book also includes responses to both papers by four prominent economists--Robert J. Barro and David M. Cutler, of Harvard University; Alicia H. Munnell, of Boston College; and James Tobin, of Yale University--as well as Henry Aaron's and John Shoven's replies. The introductory remarks are by Benjamin M. Friedman. 001404082 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001404082 650_0 $$aSocial security$$zUnited States$$vCongresses. 001404082 650_0 $$aPrivatization$$zUnited States$$vCongresses. 001404082 653__ $$aSOCIAL SCIENCES/Political Science/Public Policy & Law 001404082 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001404082 7001_ $$aAaron, Henry J. 001404082 852__ $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete 001404082 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=3338473$$zOnline Access 001404082 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001404082 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:372008$$pGLOBAL_SET 001404082 980__ $$aBIB 001404082 980__ $$aEBOOK 001404082 982__ $$aEbook 001404082 983__ $$aOnline
