5. Raise the special minimum benefit for lifetime lower-wage workers
The minimum benefit starts at $50.90 a month for someone with 11 years of Social Security coverage. SmartAsset reported that the benefits can arrive at $1,066.50 for workers with 30 years of coverage. An important Biden-Harris administration proposal is to increase the minimum benefit by 125%. It will help a lot the retirees in need. It’s awful to work for years and years, and when you need help the most to be abandoned.
A society should take proper care of its seniors because, without them, we would have never had the new generations that keep the country working and going further, and continue building a bright future.
