Thoughts from a Senior Citizen

I received this via email. Not only do the liberal-progressives want to ration health care for seniors, they want us to have to eat cat food again just like in the Jimmy Carter years.

Obama recently approved a 2% salary increase for all federal employees effective January 1, 2010. Members of the executive, legislative and judicial branch are due for an automatic pay increase in January as well. All this on the backs of seniors who will not incur any COLA increases for several years.

For the first time in history, the Congress will not allow an increase in the social security COLA (cost of living adjustment).

In fact, The Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation predicts there may not be any COLA for the next three years.

However, the per person monthly Medicare insurance premium will be increased from the 2009 premium of $96.40 to $104.20 in 2010 and to $120.20 for the year 2011.

Send this to all seniors that you know. Remind them to not vote for the incumbent senators. Let's get the bums out of our pocket books!
