Letters: Thanks isn’t the word for Congress’ generosity

AP

I want to express my great appreciation to those men and women in Congress who raised my Social Security benefit by about $3 per month. Then they allowed an increase in Medicare costs, leaving me with $50 per month less than I currently have.

Thank you for such generosity, and good wishes.
