social security increase -approx 3.5%

for those of you that have comcast his is old news for those of you that don't it will be some good news for a change.
Amazing how they change what they use to base inflation rates.
food is up an average of %7.5 for the last two years we got no raise,heating oil was up over a $1.00 a gallon last year. gas was also !
I guess those with $250,000 a year income don't notice that.

their is over 55 million depending on ss to survive and they estimate 90% of those cannot survive without it.
and the repukes want to privatize it! A fat chance how's the market doing after the last gas spike? you bet it affects everyone!

who do you think they are ripping off when the market drops-the guy little guy who's 401k is invested in the market! that could be your ss if your stupid enough to buy into it!
