re: #136 lawhawk

That day is fast approaching at the rate that states are calling in their chips and saying that they’re plum out of money or need bailouts. Kansas is now saying they’re going to hold off on issuing their income tax refunds - that’s your money Kansasans. You’ve let the government borrow it from you, but it is your money. California is even further along in heading down the trail of bankruptcy. Fiscal and financial illiteracy is greatly to blame.

And the federal bailout will prove to not do a damned thing, because whatever money you think you’re getting as a federal refund is going to end up going to the state where you live to make up for its shortfall even after it increases its state’s budgets at a time when everyone else should be curtailing spending.

Colorado is slated to get 1 or 2 billion (I have seen those figures and every figure in between) and yet the state is right now planning on taking away property tax cuts to senior citizens.

For a matter of fact, I’ve notice a BIG trend in both the stimulus, state governments and just general talk that seniors are not just worth as much as younger folks and they should not be taking so much of the pie.

I’m not kidding. Look and listen closely to what is coming down the pike. It’s not pretty.

Welcome to the Monkey House. How about a little legal culling of the herd.

We already know that there has been talk by Dashle that certain medical treatments for seniors have to be reexamined in light of their costs.
