The House yesterday passed legislation cancelling the increase in Part B Premiums in 2010. It now goes to the Senate where it is sure to pass and will be signed into law this Fall.

If your a senor and live on your Social Security check, I just said a prayer for you.
To: george76
uh-huh, no increase. sure.
You want to see canes, walkers and scooters turned into 'assault weapons'? Then let the gazillion of seniors get screwed. No inflation my patoot. EVERYTHING is up - except the IQ of Congress.
(This was 'leaked' a couple months back. It ain't gonna happen. There will be a small increase, at least to offset the loss due to higher Medicare Premiums)

"Though benefit amounts for 2010 won't shrink, with investment losses and lower home values, the lack of an increase will feel like a loss to many seniors." Let's see. The real cost of living has gone down. The SS payment will NOT go down. So, in effect, the recipients will actually have more spending power, which is the same as a "cost of living" adjustment.

The teachers in my school district, since 2006, are limited to a 5.25% annual increase, roughly twice the CPI inflation rate in all but one year.
“But its all for the children.” Just ask them.

This was announced some time ago, but most seniors probably didn't get the message. I'm sure the MSM had a blackout on the news.

No surprise here, folks. I’ve said for a long time that this was one way the government was going to help reduce the financial impact of retirees on the Social Security system.
