Original Note:
Seniors are getting an increase as a cost-of-living adjustment, not an increase in purchasing power. Inflation is up about 8.3% and they're seeing an increase of 8.7% so the net increase is only 0.4% This is laid out on the SSA website and link is attached. https://blog.ssa.gov/social-security-benefits-increase-in-2023/
