Characterizing this as a Biden issue is improper. Sure he will try and claim credit for those that look at it as person-driven but this is all set up automatically.
I think seniors that have SS payments as a majority in their retirement income are getting hosed on inflation, I know I am. I would be angered if the established rules changed while I was a user. If the rules changed for users 15 years in the future,, on a gradual basis, so it could be planned for by those impacted, I would be less opposed.
notice the death "payment" remains at $200....
winings at slot gambling remains at $1200...with inflation, why isn't that amount increased up to $2000 or more?
locally if you are destitute enough you get a little break on your prop taxes....the household can't make more than $40,000 and that figure hasn't changed for a decade....why hasn't it gone up with inflation like my property taxes have.....
"they'll "give" 9% but they'll take 12%.

Like “Means Testing”? Any means testing is robbery, plain and simple. I get a large check, as compared to probably most recipients but paid in a large amount, also comparatively speaking.
