Most of the programs started during the Depression era were temporary relief measures, but one of the programs - 
Social Security - has become an American institution. Paid for by deductions from the paychecks of working people, Social 
Security ensures that retired persons receive a modest monthly income and also provides unemployment insurance, 
disability insurance, and other assistance to those who need it. Social Security payments to retired persons can start at age 
62, but many wait until age 65, when the payments are slightly higher. Recently, there has been concern that the Social 
Security fund may not have enough money to fulfill its obligations in the 21st century, when the population of elderly 
Americans is expected to increase dramatically. Policy makers have proposed various ways to make up the anticipated 
deficit, but a long-term solution is still being debated.

and voluntary organizations is available. Volunteerism is on the rise in the United States, especially among retired persons.
