Presidential race 2016

Sometimes I think about being old and not having enough money to live on. I don't live an extravagant lifestyle so I'd be happy just to maintain the status quo.

I can testify first hand how difficult it is to live on a fixed income, without having to resort standing on a corner with a cup in hand begging for coins.

I am prescribed some medicines for emphysema (inhaler anora) which takes approximately $100.00 per month out of pocket so I go without. I take another medicine which is also $100.00 out of pocket. The doctors are nice enough to provide me with samples when they have them, but I go without if they don't have samples on hand. Obamacare had nothing to do with this. I just haven't taken the time to change insurance plans.
I know people who are in the same "boat." There are not sufficient raises in accordance with increased COL expenses.

I might be but I think Obamacare can work with some tweaks and putting some restrictions and controls on the Insurance companies....I know some of you want less Government in your lives, but there needs to be more regulation in some ares, e.g., insurance companies, airline companies, etc. There is a politician now (a Democrat) who has demanded that airlines provide more leg room....uh, what, someone actually cares about our comfort and he is a politician....just wow!

I am totally against privatization of Social Security....Invariably when they happens, there is fraud upon fraud, but with the inefficiency of the Gov't with false claims, etc., it probably equals out.

I could support Hillary's, Bernie's, or Trump's plan on the surface, but not enough detail, thus far. Thanks again, Hair, for your comparison info.
