Superannuation and Social Security in Australia and the United States Download

Description:

Like other industrialized countries Australia and the United States have
legislated systems to assure adequate income to the elderly. This paper
compares some features of those systems in the two countries, considers
the risks inherent in a privatized pension system and describes the Social
Security “crisis” in the United States. There is a similarity between the
former risk and the latter crisis that has implications for social policy in
both countries.
