IS CUT. Seniors will have to choose. That also includes lowering cost of living for us baby boomers that are now reaching 65.
IS CUT. Seniors will have to choose. That also includes lowering cost of living for us baby boomers that are now reaching 65.
Why is this important?
Next month I, as well as other baby boomers, will be 65. We have worked and paid into social security, and me personally since age 15. Due to illness I retired at age 62. But as far as myself and the rest go,
if you reduce cost of living or cut money from Social Security or Medicare you put our health at risk. I personally take meds that have no generics. One med is $200 for 30 pills and another is $80. I have signed up for Plan D for meds and that costs $36 a month. Well, do I get my meds and not eat or do I eat and not get my meds. This is what you force me and the other baby boomers to ask. The health of seniors is at risk. We have worked and supported the system and surprise instead of help we are the first on the chopping block. Please
reevaluate your policies and cut the waste. We are NOT the
problem Boehner wants us to be. It is always the Rich want to
stay Rich. They have excuses, we have health issues. More money
taken from us is certainly not fair. If I heard right during the debates
some 7 million dollars already was taken from Social Security or
Medicare and I do not know what it was used for. I do not recall being asked if I wanted that money taken or used for something other than helping us in our Golden Years, which Boehner is tarnishing fast. The word entitlements means exactly that. We seniors ARE entitled because we paid into the system. Now when we are vulnerable as we age, our rights need to be protected just like the money WE ARE entitled to. ANY cut to social security or medicare puts us SENIORS at risk and should be stopped.
