Social Security Increases Accelerate Insolvency Timeline

(Worthy News) – The Social Security Administration’s plans to increase recipients’ benefits by 5.9% next year could lead the Social Security Trust fund to run out of money by 2032, one year ahead of previous estimates, according to Maya MacGuineas, president of the bipartisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget.

“The trajectory for Social Security was already an incredibly troubling one,” MacGuineas commented, according to a report published on NBC Montana. “When you have a big bump up like this that means that spending is going to be higher, not just this year, but all years going forward.”

The upcoming increases, which will start in 2022, are the largest since 2009, when retirees got a 5.8% increase. In other years over the last decade, low inflation has brought increases of less than 2% a year. The 2022 increase is also the largest cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) since 1982.
