GF's chooses to look at this development as "good news": inflation is under control.
I must agree with you Hodja. The flip side of the GF gambit is there is no money to pay for an increase (until the GAO doctors the numbers and Obama directs the Treasury to print more.) What's more, we all know how much further our dollars go today than just 2 years ago at the last increase, so it would be just greedy to even entertain the thought of getting to keep more of the money already paid in to Social Security. At the end of November the New World Order and Medicare will also have to contend with mandated cuts to doctor reimbursements for most all Medicare services - numbers that now are close to 25% across the board; so that will really be a boon to the giant tote sheet and make the BigO look good on paper - and there will probably be less eyes to puruse those papers (Good - less potential criticism) as the population finds a new steady state with socialized medicine.
