Abstract

Faut-il réformer la caisse de compensation au Maroc?

Par Essaid Tarbalouti

Version, Mars 2014

The debate on the efficiency of the subsidy of the prices of foodstuffs granted by the policy of compensation and his reform are deeply livened up between the government and the opposition in terms of its cost and its ineffectiveness. This debate concentrate on the social earnings to replace this mechanism of assistant by the granting of a minimum income to the poor people. We demonstrate that this mechanism in spite of the superiority on the policy of compensation, in the presence of the convex preferences, there is less effective than a check food. Consequently, this article answers two questions: what shape of assistant is more effective and to what extent these assistants stress social inequalities instead of reducing them?
