I'm on SS and no we didn't get a raise last year, and antone who thinks the cost of living has not gone up, needs to do a little grocery shopping.My private health care price went up, my deductible3 went up, my auto insurance went up. Its cheaper for me to use walmart and buy my prescriptions out of pocket than use our required 90 day supply for maintenance drugs.Since my private health care cost comes out of my pension, that has also gone down.In the mean time we finance a corrupt government that sends tons of heroin to this country, we open our borders to truck traffic that also lets tons of cocaine and marijuana come through. We let employers hire illegal workers who contribute little to theit health care, and billions trying to promote democracy into a culture that has never known it, and probably dosn't want it.Congress was afronted by a comedian?. they are the biggest joke in america. There are four turds in the ointment, nancy, bahner mitch and obahma, and none are up for re-election. Sure I'm going to vote, havn't missed one since 1957. But the idiots are not in danger this term, and we don't remember well when we vote. I'm looking for 2 more years of gridlock.
