Seniors and those falling under the ADA need expanded services, not reduced.

There should be a scaled assistance program to assist those groups with housing/mortgage costs, protection from unfairly applied property taxes that goes above homestead exemptions, basic utilities assistance (it disgusts me that people today STILL consider those little things like electricity, clean running water that won't harm you, and heating/air conditioning to be "luxuries".. This is the fucking 21st century.. Those are NOT just "luxuries" any longer. Hell in this day and age, internet and basic phone service for all should be a GIVEN..not something that is chosen against putting food on the table. Expanded transportation services for those who are no longer able to get themselves around.
