      Social Security benefits will automatically go up by a small amount next year. That's better than nothing but not enough to keep up with seniors' health care and prescription costs.https://twitter.com/AP/status/1050378256132857857 …

      Tens of millions of Social Security beneficiaries and other retirees can expect a modest increase in benefits next year as inflation edges higher. http://apne.ws/r9pZTa2

      Working Americans earn #SocialSecurity by paying in with every paycheck. A lifetime of work and contributions means they deserve a secure retirement - not worrying about which bills to pay.

      Congress should be protecting and strengthening #SocialSecurity benefits, not pushing radical changes to Social Security like the president's aides and congressional Republicans have proposed.

          Amazing how you are so diligent for government to pay out money, but are butthurt when tax cuts allow us to keep more of our money, but increase tax revenues to Uncle Sam. The ignorance of liberal econ 101.

          What it's now radical to protect Social Security from bring used by those who have no rights to it. Tell us why social security is in this situation? Could it be because congress stole the funds.

          Congress needs to reimburse Social Security / Medicare with the money they've ripped off from taxpayers. This reimbursement needs to happen NOW, BEFORE any additional budgets are done. Why do they think that our Soc Sec /Medicare is their own slush fund? 😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠😠

          I'm holding on by my fingernails. Social Security is my main income. Supplemented by my art sales. I worked for 55 years, from the time I was 15. Thirty five years in schools, non profits, and health care orgs. Paying into Soc Sec. Plus raising three kids and a grandchild. Help!

          Social Security is like a savings account that every working American is required to keep. Republicans trying to plunder the money because they are assholes. I say cut us all our check NOW because that is OUR money, not the government’s to spend or cut.

          Just eliminate the Social Security Cap and it becomes a Flat Tax like the Medicare tax and not keep it as a REGRESSIVE Tax in its current form.
