(1,364 posts)to give up some of your SS. I get $825/mo. I will have to sell my home that we built because the tax load is getting too heavy. I get LI-HEAP because of my low income and was only able to get 2 cords and that was late in the season because of the tardiness of the the Rethugs in Congress. My firewood is going to run out within the week and we have another Polar freeze coming late next week. I had to utilize our local food pantry just to get enough to last until the 3rd.
Maybe it's fine for you to give up a little, but where is the little that I and many of my fellow seniors to give up? I also serve on our county senior council and I know for a fact that seniors are going down the tubes. But, oh, yeah, let's give up a little so the rich mofos can have more.
