Back up to a year ago. Oct 2009: No COLA for SSI recipients, but wait . . . what does 0 propose, and Congress provide?
Why, none other than a "one time" $250 payout to each SSI beneficiary.
Wonder what the mean $:vote ratio the Dems will get achieve of a second 'buy a friend' program?

October 2009....."one time" $250 payout to each SSI beneficiary.
They did the same thing for Disabled Vets....and then they took the entire $250 out of my IRS Refund. THEY FRIGGIN' TOOK IT BACK. That is no joke; for real, dude.

Both hubby (70) and I are on SS,
NEITHER of us received that $250. I think our income with both our SS and his retired Military pension puts us over the income limit.
We are already paying more taxes on his Military pension than we were in 2009.
BTW if SS doesn't give a COLA raise then neither will retired Military or federal employees receive one.
