AHA!

I found a difference.

SS Colas more more generous under Bush.  Gasp~!~!  



No shit?

You think that might be because there has been no inflation to spur a cost of living increase?


No inflation, no COLA

However, both the Obama administration and the Congressional Budget Office (pdf) are forecasting that Social Security beneficiaries will not receive any cost of living adjustments in fiscal 2010 or 2011. The reason? The pronounced recession in the United States, which has created pricing pressure -- not pricing power -- for businesses. Pricing power is so weak for firms that the Federal Reserve believes the nation is more likely to experience a bout of deflation -- not inflation -- at least through mid-2010, and perhaps for a longer period.

Not when utilities have gone up,  stuff people actually use.   Maybe the GOP can fix things.

Read the fucking article!

Social Security cost of living adjustments are set by a formula established by Congress.

The President has nothing to do with it.

Couldn't do that with, 'The cigarette and gum wrappers blowing around in here between my ears. Or, 'Sara Palins book sold more copies.'  Or, 'Don't read this, listen to Limbaugh; you don't need to know.'  Or, 'They shoot lawyers, don't they? (my relationship with Dick Cheney)'.     None have that majestic ring to it.

I am just supposing you missed the 8 years of his presidency? I think it was pretty well documented that dubya had a bit of a problem in his "younger' yes....his 30's which I guess are younger to a 70 year old......His benders keeping him away from performing his "duty" in the Alabama Air National Guard along with his transfer to Alabama from the Texas Air National Guard......Did he do it in the White House? Frankly I don't know....but it would explain a lot of things. If not, then he is dumber than I thought.

There were quite a few suggestions that the reason he kept fleeing to his ranch and hiding from the media for a week every time any trouble happened was that it let him get pissed as a turk and maybe powder his nose without anybody besides a few flunkies being any the wiser, weren't there?

Actually he tried to soften the blow with a few hundred dollar increase, but Congress said no.

With Republicans blocking unemployment extensions, I doubt they're gonna help you with this, pahb.
