The article implies that the highest part B rate is $115.40,,, how come we're paying $153.34 for wife, $159.63 for husband then? Somebody's lying. Factcheck.org puts out the same garbage on the rates, when in fact the numbers you see here are real.

I would like to see congress make cuts in spending that is WASTE. There is plenty of waste and overspending that can be cut without cutting benefits to the people who need it. If anyone can work, they should work and not expect the government to pay their way, but we need to take care of those who cannot work. Congress can do it, but too many in Washington want to increase government spending which is killing the growth of our economy!

The whole thing is a farce. Inflation is rearing its ugly head from almost every direction. The wealthiest of Americans probably look at SSI as stamp money.

It means nothing to them Perhaps the Medicare part is different because of the fact an illness can break you.
