Faster economic growth will save Social Security

Those with the responsibility of protecting Social Security�s solvency arrive at their conclusions by projecting economic growth over 75 years. The �crisis� is based on an assumed 1.8% economic growth rate. If the economy grew at 3% the system would be sound for the foreseeable future and the crisis would disappear.
