摘要

The goal of social security programs is to ensure that people will not experience a marked drop in their standard of living when they retire and that no person will find himself destitute in his old age. That these objectives may or may not be met in the absence of government intervention will likely always remain controversial-at least in the academic and policy circles. Uncertainty and asymmetric information surrounding one's longevity provide ample reasons for failure in insurance markets, including social insurance. However, one should not underestimate the role that paternalism plays in overemphasizing such market failures either. Regardless of the side one may take in this debate, all commentators appear to agree that the goal of providing the retirees with some measure of economic security in their old age cannot be met if the country's retirement system is not economically viable and stable in the long run.
