Finally got a look at my big Social Security Cola, I’ll be a couple of loaves of bread shorter every month. The Medicare rate increase has again exceeded whatever the monthly cost-of-living increase that is on my check. My SS checks have been at $588 every month in 2024, starting in 2025 my check is $577. Cola just means a sneaky way of saying, “We get the Cuts, we take Our Loss Again”. Could we please have some of that original recipe Cola we used to get? Anyway, this is the 4th Cola in a row where my SS check has actually gone DOWN, at this rate, I may need to move in with the gophers! And if you even think that P45-47 is going to make it any better, you are sadly mistaken. I wonder if SSI will last until next year, the GOP is so totally against health care and any safety net.
I don’t know the status of my V.A. comp yet, but the GOP is now in charge, and I KNOW what to expect from them. They’ve done me several times in the last 50 years, a little here and a little there and one big grab for Ronald Raygun that I paid for, for 18 years. I’m going to reserve the 7th gopher hole on the left, because I think I might need a new home next winter.
I need relief!
