Social Security and Medicare Reports Little Changed from 2012
CEPR Co-Director Dean Baker noted in a recent analysis of the 2013 Social Security and Medicare Trustees Report that the Social Security trust fund will remain fully solvent for the next two decades and will be able to pay over 75 percent of full benefits from then on. Baker also pointed out that the projected Medicare shortfall has fallen by almost 70 percent since 2008. For more, see CEPR's latest Social Security Byte.
