Our Economy is doing better than ever. Money is pouring into our cherished DOLLAR like rarely before, companies earnings are higher than ever, inflation is low & business optimism is higher than it has ever been. For the first time in many decades, we are protecting our workers!

Due to inflation it looks like the COLA for Soc Security recipients is going to be the biggest in years.

Sadly it still won't be a realistic increase based on how seniors and disabled spend their money. They need to switch from the CPI-W to the CPI-E for that.

Trumpass is not only undoing all the good that Obama did, HIS craptastic policies, lies and tantrums are making things worse.
