And I am one of those old folks and I vote NO.
What is $250. suppose to do, except run up debt.
Are the Dem's so DIM that they believe 250. can make a difference in one persons life.
If any of our seniors really need help, then lets help them. Give them food stamps, free rent, a voucher for a winter coat and most of all heat for the winter. I am 75, have been self employed for more than 50 years, still work most days and I am happy, warm, content and pay my own way. That is my American Dream.
I’m right there with you but a few years younger. Most of my friends over 60 are doing okay but then again most of them are politically and fiscally conservative and have worked at something their entire lives. I run a business out of my home and still work not only because I have to in order to maintain my chosen lifestyle but also because of “Why not?”. I can do what I’m doing as long as I can toddle down the hall to the office and my memory and thinking capacity stays intact. I had my fill of trying to deal with the government after Ike dealt us a blow. I’ll never call them again. Conservative are a generous bunch. Our church group has a tremendous outreach program. We do things that don’t necessarily take money - help with housekeeping, yard and minor home repairs, take them to the store and doctor’s appointments, etc.
