Yes, but at the same time they announced a 12% increase in the deduction for Medicare which comes out of that SS payment

Part B: (Medical Insurance) Premium $93.50 per month. From $88.50
That's 5 bucks they get back. Well that may be 12%. The figures are from Medicare web. And the $88.50 is my last years cost?
Hope your 12% is wrong, 6 more bucks for me.

Why if I'm making over 400k per year, do I need the Gov. to help me????
Is the Gov. in the insurance business? Damifino

Good question, Busterb. Folks making $400,000 a year don't need government hand-outs.

Oh, and Tonchi, thanks for explaining where my extra $4.00 will go.
