Abstract

Protecting the social security of the American households has been in the process of transformation, meeting more and more long-term challenges like demographic, financial; and facing new threats for well-being, like inflation. Though inflation doesn't dominate Americans' worries as the most important problem facing the country, Polls show the growing part of householders having problems with paying the bills; worrying a great deal about inflation, the availability and affordability of energy etc. The proposed Budget of the U.S. Government for Fiscal Year 2023 contains a wide-ranging list of government social spending initiatives, but the worries of Americans about the government regulation and social issues remain.
