Social Security Benefits to Jump 8.7% Next Year; Parkland Shooter Gets Life in Prison; Food Prices Still Surging
Social security recipients will see an 8.7% jump in their payouts in 2023. A jury spared Nikolas Cruz, the Parkland High School shooter who killed 17 people in 2018, from the death penalty on Thursday, instead recommending he receive life in prison without the possibility of parole. Food prices have continued to soar, putting pressure, with the food-at-home index showing another 0.7% increase in prices in September.
