No increase in cost of living, therefore no cost of living increase in your social security benefits.
Oh, wait, just kidding, there WAS an increase in health care cost, so we WILL increase your Medicare premium.
Bottom line: Recipients of SS benefits get squeezed from both ends based on OPPOSITE interpretations of the same reality.
That's a big steaming crock of bullshit.
