Abstract

Security for Lawyers
Curry, James E. | September 1, 1956 issue

add to cart   close window

Social security was first devised for the benefit of wage workers. Some may argue that the amendment bringing the lawyers under it signals their entry into the proletariat. It would seem more accurate to say that they are graduating from a vestigial proletariat into an all-inclusive American middle class. Some lawyers may argue that social security rights are not private property because they may be altered by Congress. As Marxists will bear out, the proletariat does not consist of the working class as a whole, for almost everyone works.
