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. 000372008 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 000372008 650_0 $$aSocial security$$zUnited States$$vCongresses. 000372008 650_0 $$aPrivatization$$zUnited States$$vCongresses. 000372008 653__ $$aSOCIAL SCIENCES/Political Science/Public Policy & Law 000372008 655_0 $$aElectronic books 000372008 7001_ $$aAaron, Henry J. 000372008 852__ $$bebk$$hMIT Press 000372008 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/6219.001.0001$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 000372008 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 000372008 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:372008$$pGLOBAL_SET 000372008 980__ $$aBIB 000372008 980__ $$aEBOOK 000372008 982__ $$aEbook 000372008 983__ $$aOnline
