We got our money’s worth this year.

Said what? I don't know about you but my COLA for this year in no way covered the increases in food, rent, gas, maintenance and repairs, etc. etc. etc.

Agreed. These so called "raises" are a joke. For some it will be a whopping $43 a month increase, for others it will be less and Medicare will take most of it because they always, ALWAYS, raise their prices to coincided with our so called "raise". Can't wait for Trump to get into office and stop the taxing of SS, that should help.

I was responding to the part about Medicare. Unfortunately, we had a lot hospitalization costs.
