Social Security cost-of-living adjustment to rise less than 2% again in 2015
Social Security Administration says benefits will rise 1.7% next year, coming to about $20 extra per month, which some argue won't cover health care inflation.
Social Security benefits will rise 1.7% next year for the nation's 58 million beneficiaries, or about $20 a month for the typical retired worker, the Social Security Administration said on Wednesday.
This cost-of-living adjustment for 2015 is slightly above the 1.5% increase for the current year.
