Also, medicare is cutting back on funds for home healthcare visits.Then there is the closing down of senior centers, sometimes called adult daycare. Not to mention much less funding for wheelchairs and cushions.

This infuriates me! Guess you have to get those "ENTITLEMENT" reforms!
Must balance deficit. Whoops, forgot that Syria needs some weapons!
