It's funny how two, similarly educated people, each with two children, and each within a hair of the same income, can be in
such a different financial situation. One with money in the bank and living comfortably on his savings and pensions, while
the other is desperately in debt and struggling to make ends meet. I don't see any easy solution to this problem that must
occur all over the country.

The solution to that is to remove the variable about personal choice and decision making as to how to live your life.
You ignore the many other variables. Location, commuting costs, health issues and a dozen more. There is no such comparison possible unless they are clones living next door to each other in a duplex.
Personal choice is another big one. The choice to vegetate looms large beside the choice to be alive.
lmao You mean submit to politics and religions? roflmao
Thanks, TP. That was awesome.
Gawd.....I never thought I would ever agree with Cabbagehead, but in this post only.....I do:lol:
As you can see...in eight months the OP is still spewing the same bullshyte with the same Nah nah nah tunnel visionYep, he's sure not talking like the old Cabbage! -
And arguing with him is an exercise in futility plus a waste of valuable time, even if you are retired....
Watching the snow melt outside my window, is actually more fulfilling than reading his posts...:roll:
that's right, when you can't win a debate with facts and logic you resort to name calling. When someone resorts to name calling it only shows the smallness of the namecaller NOT the person who is being ridiculed. Let's stick to the facts and stop the personal attacks, which from what I read on every entry screen is off-limits.......isn't it?
In the end, it really doesn't matter what people think in terms of the OAS program and whether or not it should be supported or eliminated. Gvt doesn't have the same money available to support all the social programs in their existing state and the funding is shrinking right across the board
Take a look at what gvt is being forced to do in terms of services and the recipients of OAS... More medical procedures being identified as elective, funding cuts to healthcare service providers that essentially allow for fewer people to get treatment, clawbacks on state sponsored drug plans, etc.
All of these elements will hit the seniors/retirees the hardest, so in effect, the OAS ends up going right back to gvt in another form.

The problem with you Tibear is you don't state your view and then drop it. No one wants to hear the same thing over and over and over, valid or not!
Certainly not your truth, because you don't have a clue what you are talking about. You take one aspect of one policy and demand it be cancelled because you see some abuse it. You would punish all seniors who need it because you don't like the few who don't need it. You don't understand why it was put in place, you don't understand how it works, you don't even know where the money is coming from, you just don't like seniors period. You are a one trick pony with a hard on for seniors.
The world is not a very nice place. There are really terrible things happening, there is greed, violence, hunger, starvation, injustice and pain, and you take something out of all that and spout off like you know what you are talking about. Well you don't. In the famous words of Robin Williams in Good Morning Vietnam, "I never met a man in more dire need of a blow job."
I see Mr. Thumbs Down is on another of his rampages. Talk about abusing systems, eh.
