Social Security and Young People: What's at Stake?
This series of Cato Institute policy forums will examine what generations X and Y have at stake if Social Security is to be reformed, or to remain as it is. Americans under 30 have more distrust of the current system than any other age group, and consequently are most supportive of private retirement accounts. Co-sponsored by the America's Future Foundation and Third Millennium, this conference will feature economists, pollsters, and policy analysts discussing all facets and sides of the issue. The four forums will take place from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m., September 10 and 19 at the Cato Institute, and September 12 and 24 on Capitol Hill.

Cato celebrated its 25th anniversary with a gala dinner on May 9, 2002. The first Milton Friedman Prize for Advancing Liberty was awarded to pioneering development economist Peter Bauer. Cato also released several anniversary publications, including: our 2001 Annual Report; the new book Toward Liberty, edited by David Boaz; and a commemorative issue of Regulation Magazine. Dinner speeches by John Stossel and P. J. O'Rourke, tributes to Milton Friedman by President Bush and Donald Rumsfeld, and anniversary pictures can be found in the July/August issue of Cato Policy Report.
