If everyone votes Democrat, then I'm sure the government will issue another one-off check to offset the missing cola. If the repugs take over, then I'm sure that social security will be moved to the stock market, where it can fluctuate daily, prop up investment firms bottom lines, and maybe even lose 10, 20, 30 % the next time financial institutions dick around.
