Under Obozo, transfer payments increased almost 32%. My Social Security payment went up less than 2%. I think if you can fog a mirror, you should work for your welfare. Show everyday at 8AM and leave at 5PM. If you don’t show, neither does your welfare check...and that means ALL payments including rent subsidies, free cell phones, food stamps, etc.
The newest 2% SS COLA raise is $1.00 to your bank account per month, and $133 to INCREASED Medicare Premiums. I’ve lost tract of what we currently pay in Medicare Premiums since it went to auto deposit and we got no statements when we did get a 1% COLA raise under DUMBO. That amounts to $12.00 yearly in your pocket, $1,596 yearly in Medicare Increased Premiums. As we are Retired Military (Navy) our Co-pays have increased as well for Tricare Life which is Medicare’s secondary for us.
Even weiner gets more than double in a Pension for 1 yr than a 20 yr career Ret. SCPO does.
I’d love to see Pelosi’s ‘CRUMBS’ personally, that would buy several months of groceries for 2 people.
