How dare you play politics with retirees. It is bad enough that energy and food is not in the current calculations for CPI but moving to a chain system of determining cost of living adjustments is taking food and medicine out of the mouths of people who are incapable of fighting back. We elected you to fight for us not to give away the little that we now have. You ought to be ashamed of yourself.
Why is this important?
It is affecting those of us that can fight for ourselves. You are taking the weak and poor of us and throwing us under the bus.
