They didn't get a COLA because there was no cost of living increase. Explain why Congress should bypass an already bad system and make it worse by handing out (other people's) money when the law doesnt mandate it.
It's in the article link. Besides, why did Bush continue to embrace Trickle Down when it was already proven to be a dismal failure?
At least with Trickle Up every dollar sent to Seniors will be put right back in the economy buying food and other items they need to merely survive.
Eighty cents a day is the margin for survival?
You may have a hard time believing this but $250 will go a loooong way with Seniors that are already barely making ends meet.
