Social Security gains automatic boosts under 1973 law
The 1972 changes to Social Security aim to keep benefits aligned with living costs and rising earnings. From 1973, automatic annual checks trigger benefit increases if prices rise by three percent or more, with earnings linked increases to tax bases and benefits. Retirees may earn up to 2100 annually without benefit loss, and Medicare premiums will not rise faster than Social Security cost of living increases. The new rules also allow workers to earn extra benefits up to age 72 and introduce a minimum payment for long-term low-wage workers.
