Fixing Social Security

In Fixing Social Security (Princeton University Press) R. Douglas Arnold explores the history of Social Security in America and its political impacts. He argues that our current system is not working, as data shows 83 million Americans will face an immediate benefit cut of 20 percent by 2034. Arnold ultimately offers a comprehensive analysis of where Social Security stands and what could be done to improve it.
