Start cutting funds from the TOP!!!
Start cutting funds from the TOP - White House and all Politicians - instead of from the most needy and vulnerable citizens - such as the poor, mentally ill, disabled and elderly - to name just a few. We do not want our tax dollars paying for politicians to have six figure incomes for the rest of their lives and wonderful health insurance and gyms and all the perks that go along with their jobs. Enough is enough!!! Don't you people have hearts? Since you need to make cuts - CUT FROM THE TOP and not the bottom!!!
Why is this important?
A co-worker of mine was telling me about her friend that takes care of her aunt and uncle who are both in their 70s. They both have dementia and need round-the-clock care. It became too much for the caretaker to take care of them both and so the uncle went into a nursing home. Just last week, the caretaker was told that her uncle would be losing all medicaid and would have to leave the nursing home. It took him 6 minutes and 45 seconds to get one shoe off his foot - and it was a slip on shoe. And that, my friends, made him lose his medicaid. Enough of this insanity. I think this country has really reached an all time low! It's got to stop. Please help me have our voices heard and perhaps "wake-up" the hearts of the politicians, rich and powerful people who seem to only care about themselves!
