Social Security hike not all you think
DEAR EDITOR:
The Social Security Administration made a big issue of the 2 percent increase that all Social Security recipients would get.
They even said the average person would receive approximately $20.
Well, lo and behold — I received $5 per month and the other $24 went into Medicare.
And I imagine I am not the only one to be cheated. My late husband and I worked very hard and thought Social Security would be enough to live on.
But now it’s just not enough to exist in these days.
