Does it cover the latest rent increase? Or are you immune from rent increases?

If one doesn't like rent increases, he can save his money and buy a home.

You keep talking about rent, only you. You are the one who took the month to month lease, that is your fault, nobody else but you. You're rent would have went up anyway.

BTW, earlier in this thread, or another, you very clearly stated he can raise the rent, because he can.....(paraphrased)

You'll definitely need it when Social Security and Medicare are slashed to pay for the temporary tax breaks. Hope you are prepared to pay out of pocket for medical care as you grow older and your SS reduced to crumbs. For most Americans, it will be devastating (but I am sure everyone here has planned for the "Paul Ryan special" coming up).

That Trumplicans can be bribed with a biweekly $115 payday loan is pathetic.

Why sell yourself so cheap?

I have not seen it in my pension. The fact is that it is /yearly about 31k. I have not seen the tables, but I believe for that section of my income, it would show an increase in taxes. The rest of my income comes from other areas which used to get charged at a lower rate. As with all things Trump I am still waiting for a result.

I also got a large increase last week. I didn't really recognize it, assuming it was COLA... but a few other people mentioned it.

Cool.


Any increase I’ve gotten is going straight to my 401k and personal investments (especially since now is probably the time to buy).
