What Does Progressive Social Security Reform Look Like?

Welcome to the Bridge Policy Download produced by the Mercatus Center at George Mason University.

Today, we’re bringing you the audio from a recent webinar we held on social security and progressive reforms.

In a new research paper, “An Analytical Framework for Strengthening Social Security,” leading expert Charles P. Blahous details a number of problems facing Social Security and how they can be addressed.

Ben Ritz and Jason Fichtner joined Blahous for a discussion to provide insight into the framework and share their research findings.
