After giving no cost of living increase to disabled veterans in 2015-16 they've decided on a "generous" 0.03% increase starting on January 1, 2017!
That takes a 10% rating from $133.17 a month to $133.57 a month!
Considering the official inflation rate was 1.6% they didn't even keep up with what they claim the cost of living had increased to.
Not to mention that the REAL inflation rate is in the double digit range. The BLS numbers are fudged beyond reason.
