90. I doubt that I could add anything to what's already said...

Fri Oct 9, 2015, 11:31 PM

Oct 2015

I have an important issue that will affect me. That being, the cut to my SSDI check that will happen next year unless the congress does something about it.

I'm barely able to pay for my apartment rent now. If the 20% cut goes into effect next year, I am screwed. I will have to try to find another cheaper and less secure place to live.

I also don't make it through a month without making a visit to St. Mary's Food bank because the money I do get does not last. I also take a lot of medications. I regularly have to decide on buying food or medications. I often put off refilling my meds until I get my next deposit.

What gets me about these sh*t heads, is where do they get off telling me to just get over it. I'd like to kick Kasich in his ass all the way back to Ohio.
