ANCR: Social Security and its programs reach nearly every family,
and at some point touch the lives of almost all Americans. Social
security has an impact on the very fabric of the American economy. In
2008 alone, Social Security paid benefits totaling about 614 billion
dollars. These benefits are used to pay for goods and services — and
play a role in keeping the economy going. Beneficiaries spend their
payments at the local grocer, clothing store, department store, and mom-and-pop
shop. It’s clear that, directly or indirectly, Social Security
benefits everyone. Learn more at www dot social security dot gov.
