PartA 2. The National Association of Securities Dealers is investigating whether some brokeragehouses are inappropriately pushing individuals to borrow large sums on their housesto invest in the stock market. Can we persuade the association to investigate would-be privatizers of Social Security? For it is now apparent that the Bush administration’s privatization proposal will amount to the same thing: borrow trillions, put themoney in the stock market and hope.Privatization would begin by diverting payroll taxes, which pay for current SocialSecurity benefits, into personal investment accounts. The government wouldhave to borrow to make up the shortfall. This would sharply increase the government’s debt. “Never mind”, privatization advocates say, “in the long run, people wouldmake so much on personal accounts that the government could save money by cutting retirees’benefits.Even so, if personal investment accounts were invested in Treasury bonds,this whole process would accomplish precisely nothing. The interest workers would receive on,their accounts would exactly match the interest the government wouldhave to pay on its additional debt. To compensate for the initial borrowing,the government would have to cut future benefits so much that workers would gain nothing at all.However, privatizersclaim that these investments would make a lot ofmoney and that, in effect, the government, not the workers, would reap most of those gains,because as personal accounts grew, the government could cut benefits.We can argue at length about whether the high stock returns such schemes assume are realistic(they arent), but lets cut to the chase: in essence, such schemesinvolve having the government borrow heavily and put the money in the stock market. That’s because the government would, in effect, confiscate workers’gains in their personal accounts by cutting those workers’ benefits.Once you realize whatprivatization really means, it doesn’t sound too responsible, does it? But the details make it considerably worse. First,financial markets would, correctly, treat the reality of huge deficits today as a much moreimportant indicator of the governments fiscal health than the mere promise that government could save money bycutting benefits in the distant future. After all, a government bond is a legally bindingpromise to pay, while a benefits formula that supposedly cuts costs 40 years from now is nothingmore than a suggestion to future Congresses.If a privatization plan passed in 2005 called for steep benefit cuts in 2045,what are the odds that those cuts would really happen? Second,a system of personal accounts would pay huge brokerage fees. Of course, from Wall Street’s point of view that’s a benefit, not a cost.第26题：According to the author, “privatizers”are those_____.[A] borrowing from banks to invest in the stock market [B] who invest in Treasury bonds[C] advocating the government to borrow money from citizens [D] who earn large sums of money in personalaccounts
Who should qualify for minimum wage protections, sick leave or any of the other benefits typically given employees?alformia's state Legislature is reopening that high-stakes,decades-long debate, as it prepares to vote on a proposal that would give hundreds of thousands of contract workers, such as drivers of ride haling companies, new benefits by legally relassfyig them as employees. If it passes, the state's narrower definition of "contractor" would trigger a host of other changes for companies that would then have to pay for Social Security, workers' compensation and unemployment insurance. Large employers would also have to pay for health insurance. This would be a significant development in workplace law and could eventually have implications for workers and companies across the country.The proposed change is of keen interest to a rapidly growing population of contractors likeLeonardo Diaz. For most of the past 4 years, he has made a decent living working 40 to 50 hours a week driving for the ride-hailing companies. "I love interacting with people," says the father of four, who lives in Los Angeles. But more recently, Diaz has soured on his job. He says that both ride- haling companies cut his share of payments, reducing his take home pay to only $9 an hour,after taking the cost of gas, insurance and car repairs into account. But he says the bigger problem is that he is tired of working as a contractor and misses employee health and paid leave benefits he used to recive when he worked as a valet. "We don't get any holiday pay, "Diaz says."If we get sick, you know, nobody's going to pay for our doctors," Contractors like Diaz make up a fast-growing part of the workforce. And any company in California using them could be affected.The impact of the new law would reverberate beyond the state."Everyone is looking to California right now and they're all following it with bated breath because they recognize that likely whatever happens in California is going to sweep across the country," says Monique Ngo-Bonnici, an attorney in California. The proposal expands on a landmark California Supreme Court ruling last year that extended wage protections to more workers and narrowed the definition of "independent contractor." The. legislative proposal expands on that ruling and would give workers benefits like paid sick leave and protections under anti-discrimination laws. Ngo-Bonnici argues that the, California proposal would put big constraints on workers and companies alike. Speically, it would mean more workers will be put on shifts, which in certain municipalities must be scheduled weeks in advance . - - -giving workers far less flexibiliy, she says.One ride-hailing company confirms it would have to revamp its operations in the state drivers are redassified as employees." We would need far fewer drivers than we currently have."says Adrian Durbin, a company spokesman. And those that remained would have a much more rigid work schedule. Durbin says those Big companies pushed California lawmakers for a middle ground that would grant independent contractors a narrower set of benefits, like minimum wage guarantees, without making them ullledged employees. Which of the following is NOT included in the legislative proposal?A. Companies to pay for workers' compensation.B. Companies to pay for workens' insurance.C. Companies to raise the minimum wage.D. Companies to provide holiday pay.
