That was only because the Democrats were raising the payouts by 15%, 20%, or more, well beyond the inflation rate and well beyond what the boomer parents deserved to get in return for their measly inputs. Put the blame where it belongs, on the Democrats for using SS and SSDI to try to buy votes. When they couldn't raise benefits, they greatly the beneficiary class for SSDI without a corresponding increase in SS taxes. Nice of them to also cut receipts by increasing the EITC as well.
