I LIVE ON SOCIAL SECURITY; TO CUT IT WOULD DROP US LOWER INTO POVERTY!

Stand up against commercial entities like insurance companies, that are targeting the poor and people who are experiencing financial hardships. Demand that automobile insurance not raise rates because your credit score drops.

Studies have shown that when people have to move their cars for street sweeping in the city, they are more likely to drive them. Currently, the streets in our neighborhood, represented by Community Board 9, have a 97% cleanliness rating for the past two years, but DOS still sweeps each side 2 times per week. Given poor air quality in the metropolitan region, it would be smarter for us to reduce this number to 1 time each side per week.

Social Secuity is about allowing elgiable citizens the right to live a decent life without additional hardships. Considering, that the price of life's products increase annualy, how is one to live and keep pace, without an annual increase in the cost of living ?

We need a Federal Law that creates harsh penalties for First Degree Child Abuse. So many children are being abused every day. Like Takota his life was taken to soon. (He was abused and literally tortured until he didn't make it while in his Mother and her Boyfriend's care) Children should never have to suffer or go through such torture. We are taking a stand, if a child is being abused it should automatically be a felony no less than ten years in prison, and if a child's life is taken it should be life in prison without parole.

Please Tammy, I collect Social Security disability. I receive $899.00 per month. By the end of the month I am always short. I have to decide where I can go based on how much gas I can afford for my car. My co-pays for my doctors deplete much of it, and my out of pocket deductable is $500.00 per year. It will take me 10 months just to pay off the deductable. Please help keep my current payment as it is, not less.

I am disabled and worked for about 30 years starting at the age of 16 and had to pay into Social Security from that time until I was no longer able to work. And with cuts to Social Security, I can't afford the common necessities. Because I have to pay higher prices for gasoline, food, and if my income decreases, it will be even harder to survive. I've already be affected by The Sequester and have to pay more for rent living in HUD Subsidized Housing for Seniors and Disabled Persons.

PEOPLE I KNOW ARE BARELY GETTING BY ON THE MONEY THEY GET, THEY CANNOT AFFORD BEEF OR CHICKEN OR FRESH VEGETABLES. EATING BREAD AND KOOLAID AND HOT DOGS ARE NOT HEALTHY

As higher education, a 4 year college or university diploma is now being required to get many jobs (including cashier at McDonalds apparently,) it is time that America step up to the competitive edge (like Denmark,) and institute Education Grants. Money for students higher education that does not have to be repaid. This must cover the entire cost of education and housing for the duration of study. Lets get Americans competitive and educated and taking the top jobs in our own country again with out the saddle and weight of repayment.
