How Social Security Reform Could Make a Popular Federal Program Better – Each year that policymakers do nothing adds trillions of dollars in additional costs to future taxpayers.

Now is the time for Congress and the next administration to tackle Social Security’s shortfalls and shortcomings by transitioning it to a smaller, better-targeted program.
