Talk:Social Security (United States)

"Criticism" section should be changed to "Impact"
The section should assess the impact of SS, not be debating points for and against SS. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 18:05, 14 March 2021 (UTC)

Correct international treaties
The line "To that end, the Social Security Administration has signed treaties, often referred to as Totalization Agreements, with other social insurance programs in various foreign countries." needs to be changed.

The Social Security Administration cannot sign treaties. Only the US president can sign treaties and Senate votes to confirm the treaty. 107.197.56.204 (talk) 21:20, 24 January 2023 (UTC)

Tables need per-recipient and number of workers supporting a recipient columns
The yearly amount paid and number of recipients table needs average benefit per recipient and the ratio of (number of workers paying social security / number of recipients).
