A college professor once said, “Statistics don’t lie, but liars use statistics.”  Things are not always what they seem when it comes to playing with numbers.

Whereas 2022’s 5.9% Social Security increase seems like a much-needed boon for struggling seniors, overall inflation is at 6.2% and Medicare will spike by 14.5%.  You don’t have to be a math whiz to figure that seniors are falling farther and farther behind.
