The issues of the social policy formation and its budget support are always relevant in a civilized society, since it ensures the interaction of all spheres of society in solving social problems. The purpose of this study is to identify factors affecting the formation of the social policy of the Russian government. Its role and importance in improving the welfare of the population, ensuring high living standards, which are characterized by indicators such as income, employment, and life expectancy of the population, as well as indicators characterizing the state of health, housing, education, culture, and the environment, are examined. The article analyzes the internal and external factors affecting the formation of the social budget at the federal level, the mechanisms of its distribution and monitoring of implementation. Among the main negative factors, the following are identified: low level of labor productivity, difficulty of controlling the inflation, low economic and political culture of the business, entailing a decrease in real income of the business and the population, and hence tax revenues to the budget. Conclusions are drawn that the main objectives of the national social policy in modern conditions should be: creation of conditions for better meeting the needs of all social groups; strengthening social justice of the system of economic, legal, moral relations; assistance to economic development of business. The authors also proposed and considered a strategy to improve the living standards of the population on the basis of a system of redistributing citizens’ incomes, which will be effective under the following conditions: creating conditions that allow the working population to earn enough money so that the family does not live in poverty; creating an effective system of support for socially vulnerable groups of the population; countering discrimination against the poor when accessing free or subsidized social services.
