Policy Memo Assignment

 

You are an economic advisor to U.S. President Joe Biden. President Biden would like to reformulate his proposals for Social Security, specifically to Old Age
and Survivors Insurance (OASI), i.e. excluding Disability Insurance.
What Social Security reforms do you propose, and why? Your memo should include an analysis of the economic considerations relevant to the policy
recommendations you present to President Biden, drawing on our discussions in class about the theory, empirics, as well as current policy surrounding
Social Security. Please be sure to use the course material to address the effect of your proposals, relative to those of President Biden, on intergenerational
and intragenerational equity; labor supply; private savings; interest rates; and economic growth.
