Produktinformationen zu „The Battle for Social Security (ePub)“
This book illuminates the politics and policy of the current
struggle over Social Security in light of the program's compelling
history and ingenious structure. After a brief introduction
describing the dramatic response of the Social Security
Administration to the 9/11 terrorist attack, the book recounts
Social Securityâ??s lively history. Although President Bush
has tried to convince Americans that Social Security is designed
for the last century and unworkable for an aging population,
readers will see that the President's assault is just another
battle in a longstanding ideological war. Prescott Bush, the
current Presidentâ??s grandfather, remarked of FDR, "The only
man I truly hated lies buried in Hyde Park." The book traces the
continuous thread leading from Prescott Bush and his contemporaries
to George W. Bush and others who want to undo Social Security. The
book concludes with policy recommendations which eliminate Social
Security's deficit in a manner consistent with the program's
philosophy and structure.
