Now that we have heard from all the candidates for President none of them have taken a meaningful stand on two important
issues for senior citizens.
1. Crime. This includes felonies, misdemeanors, and local ordinance violations. Drugs and alcohol is on the rise for both adults
and juveniles. Some will say that statistics prove that crime is decreasing, but some statistics are the product of those who have
a special interest in the numbers. Not all crimes are reported as such or are degraded by those who report them, and not all
those who commit crimes are caught or arrested.
2. Social Security benefits. Senior citizens who qualify for benefits have paid income taxes and the government taxes them
again on retirement benefits. This is not fair to those who have worked hard their entire lifetime the enjoy financial stability
while in retirement.
