Let's
take a few moments to see if we can find out why and what we can do about it?
First
Seniors,
remember that as long as our Federal Government keeps fighting over past minute
government disputes instead of doing their jobs getting workers back to work,
we will keep a low pay back of our own money?
Small
business owners now struggling to keep your company above water, remember that
when we bring our jobs back into this country, you will reap the rewards of
people being able to spend once again.
Everyone
else that is not now working, remember that once we elect government officials
that will work for their constituents and not against them, we will open up industry
and companies/employers in this country that will put our people back to work.
The
U.S. Department of Labor values its strong partnerships with
industry/employers, you put Americans to work.
The
Branch Of Government that Determents Social Security Raise http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Security_Administration
What
this means to the seniors that have put money into a social security account
all of their lives is that, because congress is constantly in dispute and not
doing their job for we the people , we the people cannot get back to work for
industry or all employers and put more money into the social security account,
remember this each time you vote.
Remember who is now in control of congress?
Social
Security raise $19 this year
Social Security benefits for nearly 58 million people, more than
200,000 of whom live in Southwest Florida, will increase by 1.5 percent next
year, the government announced Wednesday.
They are bragging about this?
The
increase is among the smallest since automatic adjustments were adopted in
1975.
It
is small because consumer prices haven’t gone up much in the past year.
The annual cost-of-living adjustment, or COLA, is based on a
government measure of inflation that was released Wednesday morning.
The COLA affects benefits for more than one-fifth of the
country. In addition to Social Security payments, it affects benefits for
millions of disabled veterans, federal retirees and people who get Supplemental
Security Income, the disability program for the poor.
