Zuri, Once again, no link. :( It's not only people just starting Social Security who won't get a raise, no one on Social Security will get a raise. My dad's kind of bummed about it. The thinking is that prices aren't rising, so people don't need more Social Security, but I agree with you -- there are some very poor seniors out there, and something should be done to help them.
