For the second consecutive year, no increase in social security

WASHINGTON--more than 58 million retirees and disabled Americans did obtain no increase in social security benefits next year, the second year in a row without an increase.

The social security administration said Friday the inflation is too low since the last increase in 2009 to justify an increase in 2011.Brands announces only second year without an increase since the automatic adjustment of inflation has been adopted in 1975.La first year was this year.

History: The consumer price rise in September because of energy

Adjustment of the cost - of - living, or COLAs, are automatically set by a measure adopted by the Congress in the 1970s inflation each year.

To compensate for the absence of a COLA, the House vote in November - after Congress - elections on a bill providing $250 payments to recipients of social security, President of Chamber Nancy Pelosi dit.Mais same Pelosi can bring home to the proposal, he faced the opposition in the Senate.

The absence of inflation will be small comfort to many older Americans whose economies and home values have not yet recovered from the recession. Many have not been increased since January 2009 and they did not get one until at least January 2012.Et timing could not have been worse for Democrats address an election in which they are in danger of losing their House majority and possibly the majority of the Senate as well.

"We're just upset because our invoices are dating and our social security is not," said Betty Dizik in Tamarac, Florida, a specialist in retirement and social worker.

Dizik, 83, said its only source of income is a monthly payment of $1,200 for social security.

"I am like many others my difficult living on social security," said Dizik. "It is difficult. We do not ends.?

"I hope only there is a way to revisit this decision (COLA) because it will affect so many people," said Edelman. " I don't understand why Congress was not because there was an increase in everything.?

A little more of 58.7 million retirees and American disabled receive social security or sécurité.La extra income social security was the main source of income for 64 per cent of retirees having obtained benefits in 2008.

The average social security benefits: $1,072 per month.

Social security is supported by a 6.2% - paid by workers and employers - salary up to $106,800 payroll tax.Because there is no COLA, this amount will remain unchanged for 2011.

The increase in benefits last arrived in 2009, when payments have increased 5.8%, the highest increase in 27 years .the ' significant increase was caused by the strong but short-lived surge of energy in 2008 prices.

Gasoline prices topped $ 4 a gallon in the summer of 2008, the rate of inflation shock and which resulted in the COLA 2009.Par high then price of gasoline fell below $ 2 a gallon, therefore made global.Les elderly, however, kept inflation rate COLA for 2009.

"They received a nearly 6% inflation COLA which is really existed," said Andrew Biggs, a former Commissioner Assistant for the administration of social security and now researcher residing at the American Enterprise Institute.

HCL Executive Director Vineet Nayar success means first of all, the second client employees

Step Nayar would admit. The first idea of his book, first of all, employees the second client is the boss doesn't have the answers. The best is just good to train the right questions.

Asked questions HCL Nayar in 2005 were: why our company looks old and tired.Why our best engineers leave .and why HCL loses market rivals?

After only three months in work of the Chief Executive, the Nayar observation was that sector is changing rapidly, customers want different things and HCL had not followed.

"The company could block all day and had a quantity very limited time to prevent such a disaster,"he told 500 engineers in Chennai on his first visit to staff.""

The audience took implicit criticism personally, but message Nayar have to drive the change began to be digested.

There was not, as he admits in a video interview with the Sunday Telegraph, a linear process of change of position position (b).

His current transparent approach to management and financial reporting - 70 000 staff members write review of performance of 360 degrees is available on the intranet of the HCL and Group publishes financial results for the company individual units - was not present at the beginning.

But Nayar realized that while he should get personal HCL to see faults of the company that he also wanted to maintain their pride in what they had achieved.It has therefore focus towards the future and the vision of what could become HCL with their help.

It also placed at the heart of the organizational structure of the HCL and promised management employees would get out of the way.

Pyramid-shaped hierarchy have not disappeared, inverted Nayar just il.Il reinforced this message by breaking these easily recognizable barriers between staff and managers, once infamous dancing on a Bollywood song in the aisles room Conference packed with employees."I can't dance nut, right? I was dancing in the aisles with these employees and make lot of noise,"is how he said.""

He explains this mockery showmanship: "I wanted that halo [CEO] to be broken."I wanted to understand my incompetence.?

Nayar continues: "my point of view, is that the entrepreneurs in the traditional sense are quickly become irrelevant and the sooner they realize that the most successful they will be."Entrepreneurs do not have to be big talkers, but they do not have to be large audiences.

"CEOs need to see their role as for next-generation business requirements instead of throwing ideas; are entrepreneurs, accountability of enabling opening functions to create and build a training ground in the organization."

Influential management types seem to be listening .Fortune magazine a mark HCL as having "style of modern management of the world", while the London Business School pins Nayar as a"leader of organizational innovation.

Despite the title of his book, the shareholders of HCL seem happy trop.De sales and operating income the company tripled on four ans.Elle is now five times the number of it lucrative contracts with large clients in 2005.Le stock has outperformed its rivals.

Is - it really the death of the traditional Chief Executive Officer, the deferential hierarchy supporting him necessarily falling farther? Nayar believes ainsi.Pourtant, there is hope for these pillars in haut.Comme stated in the book, however committed employees are always someone make the strategic decisions that set the direction of travel; someone still needs to find the plan that others follow.
