What in the world are you talking about? Are you talking about future adjustments for inflation?

Its really amazing, 3 months ago, Democrats were all crying that Medicare will be going broke in about 15 years - 20 years before the Social Security "trust fund". Now everything is going to be hunky dory till 2042, and even then, "70% of promised benefits in 2042 is more than 100% of current benefits".
