Social Security Cost of Living Increase!?

Good explanation. Thanks.

Just out of curiosity, and maybe because I'm a glutton for punishment, I was looking at the US Bureau of Labor Stats info on CPI. Shows price of gasoline down 15.3%. Pretty good until you consider that is 15% down from a per gallon price that is 150% what it was in 2020 -- at least in my neck of the woods.

More gubmint math.....

You are correct with your thoughts; prices may be down but from the jacked up prices, that's how companies discuss their savings to us, all BS if you ask me!

US Gov't has almost 3 million employed, not including military.

Walmart has 2.3 million employees worldwide which I find mind boggling.
