Investing Social Security Funds in the Stock Market: Some Economic Considerations
Description:
For the time being, Social Security receipts are more than enough to fund current benefits. But beginning in 2017, under current law, benefits are projected to
exceed Social Security receipts. At that point, if not before, either benefit will have to be cut, taxes will have to be raised, or the shortfall will have to be made up either by tapping non-Social Security revenues, which would reduce the unified federal
budget surplus or by an increase in federal borrowing.
