Swell. No COLA in my pension check for 2010 and 2011 because SS people will not get their COLA. Gas and heating prices jumping. Med prices going up, health care changing to Lord knows what. Sense of disquiet, indeed!
You are not part of the Democratic coalition. No benefits for you! Community activists like Acorn and big money bankers get trillions. But regular Americans just get the chaos as the system breaks down.
I think we've just seen the first of many SS cuts to come.
Read this:
It's not just the seniors on SS, it's retired Military, Veterans on disability and those on SS disability also.
We know there is an 8% cut to Medicare with an increase in premiums, there is also a NEW Fee to Tricare the retired Military's health plan. There are also cuts to the VA in obamadeathcare. And as we know the famed Mayo Clinic in AZ is no longer accepting Medicare patients, those on Medicare are having a very hard time finding a doctor to accept them. Tricare which is administered from the same agency, their members are next on the list to be shunned by the medical community.
obamadeathcare paid for by cuts and taxes on the most vulnerable, Veterans, retired Military, the disabled and senior citizens, so he can give illegals free health care.
Pick up the article send it to as many senior citizens as you know. Print it out along with the Washington Compost article and pass it around. Seniors have not been informed of the cuts. I watch our evening news in Memphis and have not seen word one about it.
Demand your GOP elected congress critters grow a backbone and talk about the cuts/taxes on seniors in obamadeathcare. We gray hairs are the voting block most likely to vote each election cycle. I called Lamar Alexander and Bob Corker and made those demands. No use calling my commie House member, he's an 0 butt kisser deluxe.
