The government is blaming falling gas prices for no increase in social security benefits next year.
The fact is, on a percentage basis fewer seniors travel than other age groups, due to infirmities associated with the aging process and the onset of disabling diseases and surgeries. The fact is, food prices are skyrocketing, but they are not included as a basis for a COLA adjustment.
So, it appears that the seniors need to kiss up to the oil companies to get them to jack up gas prices so that seniors can meet daily living expenses.
