Neoliberalism and Social Security

Martin H. Wolfson

Department of Economics and Policy Studies, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, IN 46556, mwolfson{at}nd.edu

The stagnant wages, worsening distribution of income, and slower economic growth that have resulted from neoliberalism have weakened Social Security’s future viability. Moreover, the prediction of a future "crisis" for Social Security is based on the assumption of continued antiworker neoliberal policies, and neoliberal policy proposals to "save" Social Security have provided a rationale for redistributing tax burdens away from the rich and further promoting the neoliberal agenda.

Key Words: neoliberalism • Social Security
