Cool. So have I, but its also what you whiners have called a handout in past and still does not detract from the fact that it was never meant to be lived off of.

SS was never meant to be lived off of.

Sorry you made poor financial decisions, d*ldoBaggins. But it is awfully socialist of you to be begging for a government handout.

The government inflation numbers do not accurately gauge inflation for the real world. Many people's insurance went up enough this year to wipe out a 2.5% COLA adjustment.

The Biden administration can falsely claim that inflation is lower so the GOP COLA can't give seniors a bigger raise

COLA is calculated using the Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) for the third quarter of the current year (July. August and September).

In layman's term, you get more money next year when inflation is high. This year the Biden administration lowered inflation to 2.9% for August 2024.

So you can,'t lower inflation and get a big COLA.
