OVERVIEW
• Social security has been around since Roosevelt's New Deal
• Social Security is meant to be guaranteed money to retirees
• Some argue that it is outdated and needs to be changed
• Others argue It can still be beneficial far into the future
• There have been ongoing issues with return not being high enough
• Sometimes people sometimes never even receive their retirement money.
• Alternatives to social security would be to privatize it

FOR PRIVATIZATION
• Hands on with your money
• Privatizing social security means people are free to manage their money as they wish.
• Privatizing can maximize the returns that retirees obtain rather than with the current social security where people may never even see their money.
• People know how much money they can receive.
• No possibility that people won’t receive their money.
