Max J. Skidmore, University of Missouri-Kansas City

A Reader's Reaction to:
Why Liberals Should Enthusiastically Support Social Security Personal Accounts by Konstantin Magin.

Summary

Although Konstantin Magin is confident that liberals should support Social Security privatization "enthusiastically," his argument adds little new to the literature, and misunderstands what antiprivatizers see in the Social Security system, according to Max Skidmore.
