The welfare case for targeting young adults : lessons from France on age-based social assistance

Brouard, Marion - 2026

Poverty has shifted from the old to the young, but welfare states have not kept pace. A euro is worth more than twice as much to a young adult than to an older individual. Family transfers barely offset public support: 88 percent reaches young adults intact. Citizens favor redistribution toward...
